Abstract
This article investigates women's experiences of gender-based violence (GBV) and migration, using data from a quantitative survey of migrant women in France. Breaking down their life trajectories into three phases-before, during, and after migration, we show how these elements intertwine, and even mutually reinforce one another. First, women who experienced different forms of GBV in their country of origin were more likely to make a more complex migration journey. Second, long journey, requiring multiple means of transportation and crossing multiple countries, in particular Libya, considerably increase the risk. Third, migrant women in France face a high risk of GBV independently of the complexity of their migration journey. Women's experiences of violence and migration can thus be understood as entangled.
