Intimate partner violence (IPV) is the abuse that occurs between two people in a close relationship. WHO report highlights that intimate partner violence has a damaging impact on physical, mental reproductive and sexual health of victims, with consequences such as physical injuries, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, suicidal attempts, substance abuse, unwanted pregnancies, gynecological disorders, increased risk of sexually transmitted infections including HIV/AIDS, and others.6, 7.
The ecological model of Hesis for intimate partner violence states that there is no one cause behind violence and it has multifaceted factors. If we understand how each factor is related, we can prevent and intervene for IPV in our society.

In countries such as Pakistan where there is paucity of resources, just allocation of resources becomes more critical8. Resource allocation is informal12,22, centralized12,22 and based on personal and political influences and donor wishes22 rather than national interests8. The health policy making process in Pakistan is explicit yet there is lack of coordination between the Planning Commission and the planning and implementation partners, the Ministries that leads to inefficient decision-making as shown by the broken lines12,22. This paper will, therefore, discuss if health resources are allocated justly in Pakistan, using EPI program as an example.Keywords
