In 2015, 45 women died in domestic violence incidents across Spain. To help combat gender violence, Spain overhauled its laws in December 2004 to make it easier for victims to get protections from their abusers. Psychologists have argued that more should be done to treat the men who are the cause of the violence. Women’s groups argue that more should be done to help victims and the funding should go towards psychological evaluation teams to help judges estimate the level of abuse suffered by plaintiffs.

Education at home and at school should be paramount because these types of violence starts at home. Teach the younger regeneration and leave the older generation because they eventually will pass way and the old habits willl die with them.
