Objective: The study aimed to explore and understand the perception and perceived effectiveness of measures implemented to address Violence Against Women (VAW) in the Women's Emergency Centers (CEM in Spanish) in Northern Peru. Methodology: A multimethodological approach was adopted, using a descriptive correlational design. 48 CEM workers were included, representing various roles and genders. Data collection was carried out through an online structured questionnaire, validated by experts with a Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.7. Analyses encompassed descriptive tests, Spearman correlations, chi2, and multiple regressions, using SPSS and Jamovi statistical software. Results: It was identified that physical violence was statistically higher than psychological violence, and the latter was higher than sexual violence. Additionally, a significant relationship was evidenced between the perception of violence and the perceived effectiveness of the measures implemented in the CEM. Conclusion: The perception of VAW in the CEM of Northern Peru is multifaceted, with physical violence being the most prevalent. Although there is a perceived moderate effectiveness of existing measures, it is essential to consider contextual and cultural factors in future interventions and studies. Recommendations include strengthening prevention and care strategies, as well as promoting greater community awareness of the various forms of VAW.
