According to the UN Foundation, 400 women are killed every year as a result of domestic violence in Kazakhstan. For this reason, divorce rates are also increasing. There are thousands of cause of this social problem, and the social consequences can be burdensome for all social institutions if prevention measures are not currently studied and developed. For children who have seen their father beaten and humiliated in the family, this event becomes a “historical root” in the child’s memory. The Kazakh proverb about what you see from the nest, in interviews with our respondents, proved how the trace of their husbands’ childhood affected their family. Researchers say that children who have seen their mothers beaten by their fathers change their image of ‘mum’. Research on the topic has been conducted by the Public Opinion Research Center in December2019. Analysis and processing of research materials have been conducted until the end of March 2020. The purpose of the research: to identify the causes of domestic violence against women in Kazakhstani families, based on cases of women seeking help from the crisis center in Almaty.
