Rising Heat and Rising Harm
Globally, rising temperatures and the frequency and severity of heatwaves are predicted to worsen over the coming years, yet the social impacts of this phenomenon remain under-researched. In particular, the relationship between extreme heat and gender-based violence (GBV) has received limited attention, despite growing concern that heat-related stress could exacerbate known drivers of violence. We conducted a systematic review following a PROSPER…
Understanding Mental Health and Childhood Adversity in Technology-Facilitated Child Sexual Exploitation Perpetrators
This systematic review examined the mental health conditions, emotional characteristics, and adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) documented among individuals who perpetrate technology-facilitated child sexual exploitation and abuse (TF-CSEA). Following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis guidelines, 10 databases and grey literature sources were searched for studies published from 1989 to March 2024. A narrative syn…
"Butterflies in a jar"
Since the 2021 coup in Myanmar, the country has been driven into further social, political and economic turmoil. The United Nations estimates that 18.6 million people need humanitarian support. Among those most affected are adolescent girls aged 10-19 years who, as adolescents and young women, face unique risks to their health and wellbeing and require tailored interventions to promote their health and wellbeing both now and in the future. Suppor…
Conflict, caregiver violence and gendered parenting
Across Myanmar, armed conflict and political instability have exacerbated poverty, food insecurity, and disrupted essential social protection services, severely affected people’s health and wellbeing. This is especially pertinent for girls and young women, for whom gender inequalities are exacerbated during conflict, increasing their risk of various forms of violence. We aimed to measure the prevalence of parent/caregiver-perpetrated violence aga…
Conflict exposure and mental health
Our results highlight the urgent need for tailored interventions for adolescents, particularly girls and young women, who are exposed to armed conflict. In contexts of protracted instability and uncertainty, such as in Myanmar, interventions should explore ways to foster a sense of social safety, especially among adolescent girls who are displaced or living away from their families. Strengthening social safety systems may help to reduce the adver…
The Co-Occurrence of Intimate Partner Violence and Violence Against Children
Violence against women (VAW) and violence against children (VAC) are public health issues of global concern. Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a commonly occurring form of VAW and there is evidence to suggest that IPV and VAC frequently co-occur within the same families. This systematic literature review searched for studies published in any language between 1 st January 2000 to 16 th February 2021 and identified 33 studies that provided finding…
Systematic review of food insecurity and violence against women and girls
Violence against women and girls (VAWG) is a global human rights and public health concern. Food insecurity is a sign of severe poverty, and likely to heighten women’s vulnerability to VAWG and men’s perpetration of it. However, the extent of the association and the multiple pathways between food insecurity and VAWG are not well understood. We systematically assessed peer reviewed quantitative and qualitative literature to explore this in low- an…
The impact of Covid-19 and associated measures on health, police, and non-government organisation service utilisation related to violence against women and children
The variation across sectors in changes in VAWC service utilisation has important implications for policymakers in the event of ongoing and future restrictions related to COVID-19, and more generally during other times of prolonged presence in the home. The increased global attention on VAWC during the pandemic should be used to drive forward the agenda on prevention, increase access to services, and implement better data collection mechanisms to…
