Rape, an issue that is neglected all around the globe. Rape is so common around the world that it is becoming normalized. Compared to other crimes rape is seen as less of an issue. The traumatic experience of sexual assault and rape, leave men and women with life long issues, both mentally and physically. In this Independent Study Unit, I go in-depth about how “normalized” rape is around the globe, the effects people are left with after experiencing trauma, and how this global issue can be resolved. Solutions to this issue are needed in order to change the safety and security  of our population. Warning, this report contains information and quotes that may be difficult for the reader.
