Community-based response to violence against women received substantive attention from community psychology scientific production over the past decades. The cross-cultural and intercontinental exchanges on research, training and action have provided us with a consistent body of knowledge for informed systems analysis and practices recommendations. The first contribution addresses the contributions of the capabilities approach to understand the long-term impacts and systems response regarding violence against women; a second contribution is focused on the narratives of women on IPV in public services; a third contribution specifically analyses the recovery from homelessness, a fourth on the community accountability approach to ending violence against women and the fifth contribution address men on the prevention of violence against women. We probe to analyse the intertwined effects of gender-based violence, through different lenses, with a rich and transnational series of contributions seeking the universal appeal to address gender-based violence.
