Co-developing a measure of technology-facilitated dating violence with youth in Samoa
Technology-facilitated dating violence (TFDV) is an urgent concern for youth globally, yet existing measurement tools often lack alignment with youth experiences and local contexts. This paper presents Co-MAP, a participatory process for co-developing a TFDV measurement tool with youth in Samoa. Guided by participatory action research, the study involved six phases: literature review, training of youth peer researchers, peer-led qualitative data …
Violence against women and children in the Pacific
The Pacific region experiences some of the world’s highest rates of violence against women and children (VAW/C), yet it has also shown leadership and innovation in prevention efforts. Despite progress, evidence gaps remain, particularly regarding intervention impact. This scoping review systematically maps current evidence on VAW/C prevention in the Pacific, complemented by expert consultation. Eleven interventions were identified across five cou…
Understanding the role of social support in alleviating the mental health burden of intimate partner violence
Background Much attention has been paid to the higher risk of adverse mental health among women who have experienced intimate partner violence. In low- and middle-income countries, where formal mental health responses to violence are often inaccessible or unavailable, informal social networks have been shown to play an important role in supporting survivors. However, there is limited evidence of the mental health needs of women experiencing IPV i…
Power and Ethics in Peer Research With Young People
Peer research, where individuals with lived experience adopt the role of researcher, is increasingly used in studies with young people, particularly on sensitive topics and with marginalised groups. It is valued for its potential to reduce power imbalances and generate rich data. However, conceptual and theoretical gaps remain, particularly concerning ethical complexities and power dynamics. This critical review examines how peer research with yo…
E le Saua le Alofa (Love shouldn’t hurt)
Women in Samoa experience a high rate of intimate partner violence (IPV) shaped in part by a history of colonisation and its influence on gender roles and lived experiences. As part of the EVE Project to improve the evidence base for preventing IPV in high-prevalence settings, we co-developed an intervention with 30 community-based researchers (CBRs) from 10 villages, drawing from evidence-based modules previously developed and evaluated in other…
Can co-designing interventions with affected communities help prevent violence against women? Findings from a process evaluation of the E le Saua le Alofa (Love Shouldn’t Hurt) pilot in Samoa
There has been increasing interest in co-designing interventions with end users to prevent violence against women (VAW). Co-design is theorized as an ethical approach to research able to engage some of the most marginalized groups in VAW prevention. However, there is little evidence of whether co-designing interventions can reduce violence against women, or a theoretical consideration of how it might do so. This paper contributes to current discu…
Association between food insecurity and intimate partner violence
Introduction Intimate partner violence (IPV) affects an estimated 27% of women globally, with consequences spanning mental, physical and societal well-being. Previous research identifies individual and relational risk factors for IPV, but less is known about wider structural factors. This study examines the association between food insecurity and IPV using nationally-representative data from 156 countries, exploring gendered asset policies as a p…
Zethembe
Effective interventions to address violence against women and girls in urban informal settlements are limited. To address this gap, we undertook an intervention co-development process, bringing together four young women (aged 18–25 years) living in an urban informal settlement, academics and NGO partners. Following the 6 Steps in Quality Intervention Development (6SQuID) approach we collaboratively worked through the steps using participatory met…
Stepping Stones and Creating Futures Plus
Marginalised young women and men in South Africa experience and perpetrate high rates of intimate partner violence (IPV), shaped by their contexts and life histories. To address this, we co-developed Stepping Stones and Creating Futures Plus (SSCF+) with young women and men living in marginalised communities to reduce IPV, strengthen livelihoods and improve mental health. We assessed the intervention’s feasibility, acceptability and potential imp…
Researcher wellbeing
This article introduces our newly developed toolkit to promote the support of researcher wellbeing (RES-WELL). The RES-WELL toolkit sets out practical strategies for UK research institutions, funders and researchers, particularly in the context of emotionally or ethically challenging research, to mitigate against risks of vicarious or secondary trauma when conducting research. This toolkit is the outcome of a one-year project comprising an extens…
Facing a double burden of inequity
The COVID-19 pandemic profoundly impacted Indigenous populations worldwide, extending far beyond the biomedical outcomes of disease and mortality. This study explores the experiences of a Quechua-speaking Indigenous community on Amantaní Island, Peru, through a critical medical anthropology lens. Employing a participatory approach, we engaged with community members to explore the multifaceted impacts of COVID-19 on their health and wellbeing. Loc…
To care and improve little by little, that's how we can do it”
This study explores the conceptualisation of environmental health, environmental concerns, and ideas for change within the Amantaní community, an Indigenous Quechua-speaking population in the Peruvian Andes. Through participatory, group-based, and creative activities, community members engaged in reflective discussions about their environment, drawing upon their rich cultural heritage and intimate connection with the land. Thematic analysis of wo…
How can GBV Research Be Decolonized and Under What Conditions? Critical Reflection on a Comparative Ethnography of Case Studies from Samoa and Peru
Histories of colonialism matter for research on gender-based violence (GBV) and questions of how to prevent it. This paper aims to contribute to theoretical debates on decolonizing GBV research by reflecting on the challenge of doing so as part of a long-term ethnographic engagement with communities in Samoa and Peru. I present three "epistemic entry-points," which point to the potential for moving the project of decoloniality forward through inc…
From violence to strength
This paper offers a reflexive, practice-based process evaluation of arts-based participatory methods (ABM) within a community-led violence prevention project in an Indigenous Andean community on Amantaní Island, Peru. Working within a Participatory Action Research (PAR) framework, the project engaged women and men through six creative methods - problem and solution trees, life history mapping with stones and petals, role play, body mapping, visio…
Identifying Indigenous strengths for health and wellbeing
“Something we can all share”
Food insecurity remains a pressing global issue and South Africa continues to face socioeconomic inequalities that make securing food a challenge for many young people. To address this challenge, we need better understanding of the social context of food and its importance in driving perceptions and behaviours about food and its scarcity. In this study, we examine the meaning of food for young people living in urban informal settlements and rural…
Misunderstood and underappreciated
Mental health advocacy and activism have been highlighted as important in the effort towards creating environments for better mental health. However, relevant research in low- and middle-income country settings remains limited and lacks critical exploration. We seek to contribute to filling this gap by exploring driving factors behind mental health advocacy and activism efforts in low- and middle-income country settings. This review uses a critic…
Challenges and opportunities in coproduction
Coproduction is widely recognised as essential to the development of effective and sustainable complex health interventions. Through involving potential end users in the design of interventions, coproduction provides a means of challenging power relations and ensuring the intervention being implemented accurately reflects lived experiences. Yet, how do we ensure that coproduction delivers on this promise? What methods or techniques can we use to …
A latent class analysis of young women’s co-occurring health risks in urban informal settlements in Durban, South Africa
In South Africa, substance use, violence, and HIV risk disproportionately affect young poor Black women. Few studies have explicitly measured the co-occurrence of these health risks or the impact on mental health and wellbeing for this population. To this aim, we use a person-centred approach to explore the clustering of health risks among young Black women from urban informal settlements in Durban, South Africa, enrolled in an intervention trial…
“I hope I die. That is what I hope for”
Poor mental health due to stigma and discrimination has been well documented among women living with HIV. Although they often have other marginalized and stigmatized identities, little is known about their mental health as a result of experiencing multiple stigmas. Current narratives of mental health as a result of HIV-related stigma center on common mental health disorders such as anxiety and depression. However, biomedical diagnostic categories…
Mixed studies review of domestic violence in the lives of women affected by HIV stigma
We conducted a mixed studies review to examine domestic violence and stigma against women affected by HIV. We searched Medline, Web of Science, PsycINFO and EMBASE databases with no starting date limit. Studies that reported on experiences of stigma, discrimination, or domestic violence against women affected by HIV in any country were included. Because the review focused on HIV stigma-related violence, we only included studies that reported viol…
Love Shouldn’t Hurt – E le Sauā le Alofa
Despite the widespread adoption of Theories of Change (ToC) for programme evaluation, the process of collaboratively developing these theories is rarely outlined or critical analysed, limiting broader methodological discussions on co-production. We developed a ToC as part of E le Sauā le Alofa ('Love Shouldn't Hurt') - a participatory peer-research study to prevent violence against women (VAW) in Samoa. The ToC was developed in four phases: (1) s…
How does domestic violence stigma manifest in women’s lives in Afghanistan? A study of survivors’ lived experiences of help-seeking across three provinces
Afghanistan has one of the highest rates of domestic violence in the world, with an estimated 46% women reporting lifetime violence. Survivors of domestic violence experience significant stigma from their families and communities, often in the form of blame, shame, gossip, and dismissal. While the manifestations of stigma are often the same across cultural settings, the drivers may be different. We conducted sixty semi-structured interviews with …
Assessing essential service provision for prevention and management of violence against women in a remote indigenous community in Amantaní, Peru
The role of structural violence in perpetuating indigenous women's experiences of violence and undermining their access to services must be central to designing and implementing appropriate policies and services if they are to meet the needs of indigenous women in Peru
Risk factors for violence against women in high-prevalence settings
Revisiting the patriarchal bargain
Although power struggles between daughters-in-law and mothers-in-law in the South Asian household remain an enduring theme of feminist scholarship, current policy discourse on 'women's economic empowerment' in the Global South tends to focus on married women's power over their husband; this neglects intergenerational power dynamics. The aim of this study was to describe and analyze the processes involved in young, married women's negotiations of …
Insights from Societal Psychology
In this paper we demonstrate that societal psychology makes a unique contribution to the study of change through its focus on the 'contextual politics' of change, examining the different interests at stake within any social context. Societal psychology explores the contexts which promote or inhibit social and societal change and can be seen as a bridge between social and political psychology. It focuses on how the context shapes the ways in which…
Narrative storytelling as mental health support for women experiencing gender-based violence in Afghanistan
Mechanisms for community prevention of violence against women in low- and middle-income countries
Viewpoint
This article contributes to current discussions about researcher trauma and encourages academic institutions to implement the systems of support that are required to make research work psychologically safe. Currently, conversations of research-related trauma have not produced institutional changes in academia due to a dominant masculinist rationale that sees research as an emotionless job aimed at achieving an objective account of reality. Howeve…
Evaluating Complex Health Interventions With Randomized Controlled Trials
Qualitative methods are underutilized in health intervention evaluation, and overshadowed by the importance placed on randomized controlled trials (RCTs). This Commentary describes how innovative qualitative methods are being used as part of RCTs, drawing on articles included in a special issue of Qualitative Health Research on this topic. The articles' insights and a review of innovative qualitative methods described in trial protocols highlight…
Sexual health service providers’ perceptions of transgender youth in England
Transgender youth often face difficulties when accessing sexual health services. However, few studies investigate health service providers' perceptions of transgender youth, and fewer focus on sexual health. To fill this gap, our study draws on social representations theory to examine sexual health service providers' perceptions of transgender youth and how this influences the provision of health services for this marginalised population in Engla…
It's just been such a horrible experience.’ Perceptions of gender mainstreaming by practitioners in South African organisations
Gender mainstreaming experienced a boom of popularity in development organisations around the world following the Fourth World Conference on Women in Beijing in 1995. This article contributes to understanding the current state of gender mainstreaming, with a focus on South Africa. Discussions with gender practitioners in South African non-government organisations point to the widespread rejection of gender mainstreaming across the country. While …

Identifying Indigenous strengths for health and wellbeing
Visual Participatory Analysis
This article contributes to the field of mixed methods by introducing a new method for eliciting participant perspectives of the quantitative results of randomized controlled trials. Participants are rarely asked to interpret trial results, obscuring potentially valuable information about why a trial either succeeds or fails. We introduce a unique method called visual participatory analysis and discuss the insights gained in its use as part of a …
A Qualitative Study of Women’s Lived Experiences of Conflict and Domestic Violence in Afghanistan
This article empirically explores women's lived experiences of domestic violence and conflict in Afghanistan. A thematic analysis of 20 semistructured interviews with women living in safe houses produced three main themes about the relationship between conflict and domestic violence: (a) violence from loss of patriarchal support, (b) violence from the drug trade as an economic driver, and (c) violence from conflict-related poverty. We discuss the…
Preventing Intimate Partner Violence
Community mobilisation is a promising new strategy for preventing intimate partner violence (IPV) against women in low‐income settings. However, little is known about the contextual factors (e.g. socio‐economic, cultural, historical and political conditions) that enable the effective mobilisation of communities for IPV prevention. This paper draws from the theoretical work of Campbell and Cornish (2010) on the relationship between context and com…
Patient neglect in 21st century health-care institutions
Despite the technological and organisational advances of 21st century health-care systems, care scandals and burgeoning complaints from patients have raised concerns about patient neglect in hospitals. This article reviews the concept of patient neglect and the role of community health psychology in understanding its occurrence. Patient neglect has previously been conceptualised as a problem associated with hospital staff attitudes and behaviours…
To care and improve little by little, that's how we can do it”
This study explores the conceptualisation of environmental health, environmental concerns, and ideas for change within the Amantaní community, an Indigenous Quechua-speaking population in the Peruvian Andes. Through participatory, group-based, and creative activities, community members engaged in reflective discussions about their environment, drawing upon their rich cultural heritage and intimate connection with the land. Thematic analysis of wo…
Conflicting policy narratives
This paper explores barriers to gender policy implementation arising from the narratives framing gender as a policy issue. Through examining the influence of gender policy narratives on practitioners, it challenges those who represent policy failures as the result of unsupportive cultural contexts. The paper draws on Fraser’s (1995, 2005; Fraser and Honneth, 2003) conceptualisation of recognition and redistribution to highlight tensions between t…
Gender mainstreaming practice
Gender is well recognised as a critical consideration for HIV/AIDS organisations. Since the 1990s, HIV/AIDS policy-makers, donors, non-governmental organisations and transnational corporations have adopted gender mainstreaming as the process for integrating gender into development programmes and institutions. There is an increasing body of literature on the successes and challenges of practicing gender mainstreaming within organisational environm…

The inclusion of women, girls and gender equality in National Strategic Plans for HIV and Aids in southern and eastern Africa
The global HIV and AIDS epidemics disproportionately affect women, particularly young women in southern and eastern Africa. UNAIDS, amongst other actors, has singled out National Strategic Plans for HIV and AIDS (NSPs) as a critical platform for ensuring that women and girls are meaningfully included in national HIV and AIDS responses. Despite this, there is little evidence as to how or whether NSPs integrate responses to women and girls. Using a…

HIV-positive African-American women’s perspectives on engaging communities in the response to HIV/Aids in Washington, D.C
The number of African-American women infected with HIV in Washington, D.C. is growing at an alarming rate. However, the perspectives of these women on engaging communities in the response to HIV/AIDS have been lacking in the literature. To fill this gap, in-depth interviews with 18 HIV-positive African-American women living in D.C. were conducted and analyzed using thematic network analysis. Three key themes emerged from these interviews: (1) the…
Conceptualising the agency of highly marginalised women
How is the agency of women best conceptualised in highly coercive settings? We explore this in the context of international efforts to reduce intimate partner violence (IPV) against women in heterosexual relationships. Articles critique the tendency to think of women's agency and programme endpoints in terms of individual actions, such as reporting violent men or leaving violent relationships, whilst neglecting the interlocking social, economic a…
Women's responses to intimate partner violence in Rwanda
This paper explores instances of agency in women's responses to intimate partner violence (IPV) in Rwanda. The literature on women's responses to IPV conceptualises agency primarily as an individual's capacity to take action by reporting violence or leaving a relationship, obscuring other ways women may respond to violence in contexts where reporting or leaving are unlikely. We aim to replace this narrow conceptualisation of agency with a social …
Advancing gender equality to improve HIV prevention
Addressing gender inequality as a social driver of HIV risk and vulnerability has become a key activity of non-governmental organisations (NGOs) in South Africa. This paper sheds light on the environmental factors that influence gender and HIV activities in this context. A multisite ethnographic study including 150 hours of participant observation and 32 in-depth interviews was conducted with 26 NGOs carrying out gender and HIV prevention interve…
Cisgender male and transgender female sex workers in South Africa
Sex workers are often perceived as possessing 'deviant' identities, contributing to their exclusion from health services. The literature on sex worker identities in relation to health has focused primarily on cisgender female sex workers as the 'carriers of disease', obscuring the experiences of cisgender male and transgender sex workers and the complexities their gender identities bring to understandings of stigma and exclusion. To address this …
The ethics of researching intimate partner violence in global health
There has been an increase in attention to intimate partner violence (IPV) as a health issue that contributes to the spread of HIV, physical and emotional stress, depression, substance use, serious injuries, and higher rates of mortality in low-income settings. This paper explores the ethical implications raised by research on IPV by global health scholars. Drawing on Hedgecoe's work on critical bioethics to analyse a qualitative study of IPV in …

Developing political capabilities with Community-Based Monitoring for health accountability
Community-Based Monitoring (CBM) is a participatory process in which citizens gather evidence on services to hold governments accountable to their commitments. Research on CBM for health in developing countries has mostly measured its impact on service performance. Overall, these studies have produced mixed evidence of CBM's effectiveness. This has led some authors to question the role of civic engagement, especially in communities where expectat…
Women’s Ideas about the Health Effects of Household Air Pollution, Developed through Focus Group Discussions and Artwork in Southern Nepal
Household air pollution is a major cause of ill health, but few solutions have been effective to date. While many quantitative studies have been conducted, few have explored the lived experiences and perceptions of women who do the cooking, and as a result are those most exposed to household air pollution. In this study, we worked with groups of home cooks, and sought to use art as a means of engaging them in discussions of how household air poll…

The role of participation and community mobilisation in preventing violence against women and girls
BACKGROUND: Violence against women and girls (VAWG) is a public health problem and one of the most prevalent human rights violations in the world. Recently practitioners and researchers have taken an interest in community participation as a strategy for preventing VAWG. Despite the recent enthusiasm however, there has been little articulation of how participation in VAWG prevention programmes mobilises communities to challenge social norms and pr…
Uptake of HIV testing among 15–19-year-old adolescents in Zambia
Adolescent HIV testing rates remain low with many unaware of their status. We explored factors associated with HIV testing uptake among adolescents aged 15-19 years using data from the Zambian Demographic Health Survey 2013-2014. The sample consisted of 7030 adolescents of which 42% reported ever testing for HIV. We found that as the age of a respondent increased so did their odds of testing (aOR = 1.26; 1.21-1.32); females had higher odds of tes…
