dc.description.abstract	Child maltreatment is a global problem with serious consequences. It affects the entire community as it does not only occur within the family context, but spills over into the community and broader society. Child maltreatment causes suffering to children and families and can have long-term negative consequences (WHO, 2010). These consequences include impaired lifelong physical and mental health, as well as negative social and occupational outcomes (WHO, 2010). There are no reliable global estimates for the prevalence of child maltreatment as data for many countries, especially low- and middle-income countries, are lacking.	en
