Gender Dimensions of Forced Displacement
The Risk That Travels with You
Displacement and conflict substantially heighten the risk of gender-based violence including intimate partner violence (IPV), experienced by women and girls. This study aims to examine the links between conflict, forced displacement and IPV using nationally representative survey data measuring IPV combined with data on conflict-related violence from two different conflict-affected settings: Colombia and Liberia. We find that forced displacement i…
The effect of armed conflict on intimate partner violence
Intimate partner violence (IPV) is the most common form of violence against women in both conflict and non-conflict settings but in conflict settings it often receives less attention than other forms of gender-based violence (GBV), such as conflict-related sexual violence. To examine whether increased rates of IPV are linked to conflict we use data from Domestic Violence module of the Nigerian Demographic and Health Survey (NDHS) collected in 200…
Measuring Socio-Economic Gender Inequality
This paper assesses the United Nations Development Program’s (UNDP) Gender-Related Development Index (GDI).

Using the same indicators as the GDI, t…

Whilst other factors are acknowledged in identifying the poor, the Assessments over-emphasize income-poverty d…
