Women’s Equality Now: Poverty & Economic Violence

Women’s poverty is hidden in the official statistics, which look only at household incomes – ignoring unequal access to resources withing households, the reliance of women on their partners’ income to avoid poverty, and the risks of financial abuse – or economic violence – that this brings.

This unique briefing looks at women’s incomes, the risks of poverty and the experience of financial abuse in Wales.
