<![CDATA[Violence against women remains one of the major social problems today. It is not merely a private matter but has become a public concern that requires comprehensive intervention and involvement from the government. Efforts to prevent and address cases of domestic violence require a comprehensive approach through education, psychosocial support, therapeutic interventions, and women’s empowerment so that women are able to protect themselves and improve their quality of life. Objective: To identify effective interventions for preventing violence against women, particularly within the household, and to promote the psychosocial recovery of survivors of domestic violence. Methods: This systematic review was conducted by searching articles through electronic databases, namely Google Scholar, Garuda, and PubMed. The keywords used in both Indonesian and English were “Pencegahan KDRT” (domestic violence prevention), “Intervensi KDRT” (domestic violence intervention), “Kekerasan dalam rumah tangga” (domestic violence), “Edukasi” (education), “Intimate Partner Violence,” “Health Education,” and “Therapy.” The inclusion criteria consisted of original research articles, full-text articles, articles published in Indonesian or English, and studies relevant to efforts to prevent or provide psychosocial interventions for domestic violence against women. Articles published within the last five years, from 2021 to 2026, were included. Results: The initial search identified 54 articles from Google Scholar published between 2021 and 2026, 15 articles from PubMed, and 10 articles from Garuda. After applying the inclusion criteria, 8 articles remained, consisting of 5 articles from Google Scholar, 1 article from PubMed, and 2 articles from Garuda. The interventions identified included community-based health education, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), positive psychotherapy, self-talk and guided imagery, forgiveness therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, mental and spiritual guidance, and casework assistance. Community-based health education was shown to improve knowledge and change attitudes toward the prevention of intimate partner violence (IPV), while various psychological and psychosocial interventions were effective in improving self-love, resilience, and subjective well-being, as well as reducing post-traumatic stress among women who experienced domestic violence. Conclusion and Recommendation: Preventing domestic violence against women requires a multidimensional approach that combines health education, psychological interventions, social support, spirituality, and survivor empowerment. Community-based interventions and psychosocial therapies demonstrated the most consistent outcomes in improving women’s mental health and their ability to cope with and prevent domestic violence.]]>
