Abstract
This commentary accompanies a study that focuses on the profound impact of intimate partner violence (IPV) on women's health in Ethiopia. The study highlights the dose-response relationship between IPV and antenatal care uptake, emphasizing the need for nuanced, context-specific interventions. The commentary highlights the need for new, sustainable and reliable ways of collecting IPV data across countries over time to effectively monitor Sustainable Development Goal 5. It advocates for a multilayered approach, combining healthcare, legal reforms and community-based strategies, to address the social causes of IPV, thereby aiming to critically appraise previously established ways of seeing information and ideas.
