It is necessary to form a culture of rejection of domestic violence in society. This problem is still relevant all over the world, even in the most developed countries. And it needs to be solved by all possible instruments, including through the media.

This was noticed by representative of the British television and radio company Alison Hindell. The head of the radio drama department at the BBC visited Belarus at the invitation of the United Nations Population Fund.

According to world statistics, 95% of victims of violence are attacked in families. Grave crimes are committed more often by men: almost 80% of domestic murders and more than 70% of serious bodily harm.
