Concept set VIOLENCE

Violence is defined by the World Health Organization as *the intentional use of physical force or power, threatened or actual, against oneself, another person, or against a group or community, which either results in or has a high likelihood of resulting in injury, death, psychological harm, maldevelopment, or deprivation*, although the group acknowledges that the inclusion of *the use of power* in its definition expands on the conventional understanding of the word.
