Violence has intensified at all social levels worldwide, generating problems of different magnitude or competence and involving people either as aggressors or victims. This paper shows the findings of the perception of the different social actors who are immersed in abuse, taking as reference the role of the State, school, family and media as the main drivers of a culture of prevention. The analysis demonstrates that people have lost sight of family responsibility as the main source of personal and social development. In addition, at the social level, behaviors disconnected from morally good actions have been normalized, giving way to violence. Therefore, this paper proposes to include violence prevention projects in a joint work that articulates social needs with cultural determinants, being necessary to establish strategies that involve social institutions and organizations.
