A new study by the University College London (UCL) has revealed that rising global temperature is fueling violence against women.

This was reported on Monday by Scidev.net- a media platform dedicated to science and tech news, views, and expert analysis on global development issues.

According to the study, one in three women globally faces intimate partner violence, disproportionately affecting those in poorer countries.

“One in three women in the world experience physical or sexual violence at the hands of an intimate partner, according to UN figures, and women in poorer countries are the worst affected,” it said.
