Beliefs of nursing students about gender-based violence

Gender violence violates the integrity, dignity and freedom of women, causing multiple consequences in their physical, psychological and social health. Nursing professionals have a fundamental role in the prevention, detection and approach to gender violence, for this reason, it is necessary to offer quality training to future nurses on this type of violence. This book explores the beliefs of nursing students regarding gender violence and their perception of the training received throughout the degree, through photovoice, a participatory action research methodology, in order to develop educational measures to facilitate the acquisition of skills related to the prevention and management of this public health problem.
