Abstract

Despite important scientific advances in how violence against children can disrupt healthy early development,the study of these issues has developed in relative isolation. Both areas are increasing in prominence,but so far there has been little call for their integration, despite the important connections between them. Without close integration, scarce resources are at risk of being wasted and potential synergies overlooked.
