metadata.value: The problems of violence against women and domestic violence were reflected in Goal
  No. 5 of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which calls for gender equality and
  empowerment of women and girls while addressing such challenges as elimination of all
  forms of discrimination against women and girls; eradication of violence against women and
  girls in the public and private sphere, including human trafficking, sexual and other forms of
  exploitation; liquidation of all harmful practices, in particular forced marriages and female
  genital mutilation. In this article, the authors examine existing conventional and doctrinal
  definitions and qualifications of the terms “violence against women” and “domestic violence”
  in international law, explore international legal aspects of prevention and combatting violence
  against women and domestic violence, conduct a comprehensive analysis of a conceptual
  framework related to these offences, and present basic approaches to the concept of domestic
  violence. The authors also examine the link between two core international universal and
  regional legal acts in this field — Convention on the Elimination of all Forms of Discrimination
  against Women and Council of Europe Convention on preventing and combatting violence
  against women and domestic violence. The authors derive a new understanding of the due
  diligence principle (a well-known principle/standard in international law) with regard
  to violence against women and domestic violence issues, clarify its key components while
  codifying states’ main obligations in this sphere. In conclusion, the authors deduce that the
  questions of elimination of discrimination against women and eradication of violence against
  women can only be considered collectively, confirming the validity of the theory of a genderbased
  approach to the issue, which is adhered to by international human rights bodies.
