Abstract
Violence against women is the most shameful human rights violation and is perhaps the most pervasive. It knows no boundaries of geography, culture, or wealth. If it continues, we cannot claim to be making real progress towards equality, development, and peace. This study aims to determine the extent of violations against women in the Second District of Oriental Mindoro. The researcher used the descriptive method of research, with a questionnaire as the major data-gathering tool. The results showed that the respondents experienced physical and psychological abuse to a great extent. Economic problems are the usual cause of violence against the respondents. An information dissemination campaign may be conducted to empower women in exercising their rights and reduce domestic violence committed against them.
