The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in late 2019 presented unparalleled global challenges, impacting every aspect of human existence. Beyond immediate health issues, the pandemic's repercussions extended into social and psychological realms, yielding unanticipated consequences for interpersonal relationships. This article offers a thorough examination of the empirical evidence and academic discussions concerning the connection between the COVID-19 pandemic and the surge in instances of domestic violence. The aim of this analysis is to illuminate the intricate and multifaceted relationship between the pandemic and domestic violence. We specifically concentrate on how various facets of the COVID-19 period served as catalysts or exacerbating factors for such incidents. We investigate the pandemic's effects on economic instability, isolation, stress, and access to support networks, all of which played a role in fostering an environment conducive to domestic violence. Moreover, this article delves into the distinct experiences of diverse demographic groups, encompassing considerations of gender, age, socioeconomic status, and geographic location. This approach provides a nuanced comprehension of how the pandemic influenced patterns of domestic violence across varied populations. We also explore the responses of governments, non-governmental organizations, and communities in addressing the mounting concerns of domestic violence during the pandemic, underscoring the significance of tailored interventions and support systems. This comprehensive review strives to enrich the ongoing discourse on the intersection of public health crises, such as COVID-19, and the concurrent pandemic of domestic violence. Through an analysis of available data and insights, our intention is to inform policies and practices, promoting improved readiness for future crises and cultivating a society where individuals can access the support required to escape the cycle of violence..
