Conclusion: The word honour is stained with blood. The notion of honour is merely seen as a dead dogma; where the community and perpetrators of such abuse see their opinion or belief to be true to the point where discussions regarding the matter cease to exist. The aim of this thesis was to answer what is the root cause of such killings, within my research we understand how honour is the main indicator and commonality. Though there is a collection of different reasoning's and inter-related factors to why the abuse goes on, the common denominator is the pristine reputation families have to honour. The honour element that is coercively controlled through the patriarchy within the community, tradition and family. In a community were honour and shame epitomises people's lives, people are continuously wary about others judgement of themselves. If moral 'honour codes' are not held, members of the community will see you as weak and hold a counsel to ostracise you from society; thus, in further circumstances compelling parents to take it upon themselves to commit honour killings. After analysing 6 case studies, I have come to the conclusion that a review of various factors come to play. Following the example, conflicts with the first generation and members of the community with the second. In particular young girls who are battling to find themselves in a world where being policed with strict moral codes is the norm. Additionally, issues like expressing yourself through clothes and makeup, integrating with people from different faiths, as well as innocent conversations with the opposite gender, all unwillingly are conditions that support the family 'honour'. While the UK government is engrossed with creating legislations for domestic abuse and forced marriages, honour based violence is overlooked and neglected time after time. In order to understand, first we must be knowledgeable in the matter. Workshops and training programmes should be placed in the school curriculum so that kids of the future are aware today. Moreover, future research should be held with interventions to help protect victims, as they are at an even greater risk when seeking help. This ultimately will help raise awareness within the community whilst helping other victims to come out and speak their truth. In the same manner, the government should reform a bill to tackle such issues, whether raising penalties for crimes so that the matter is taken seriously. Enhanced training and better resources needs to be the government's top priority in matters regarding honour abuse also. With pushing the envelope and developing further understanding of honour based violence, this can contribute in worldwide campaigns to prevent and eradicate the sensation that is honour killing.
Throughout my research we have seen honour killings as a form of abuse, predominately against women that is orchestrated by members of the family. Men's honour differs from women's honour. The foundational concepts that builds the framework of honour in culture is used to delineate women's rite of passage in society. In example, the virgin vs the non-
