基于性别的暴力是受冲突影响环境中的一个重大问题。了解当地对这种暴力的理解，对于制定预防性和应对性干预措施来解决这一问题至关重要。这项研究报告了对作为形成性定性工作的一部分收集的存档数据进行的二次分析-使用群体参与性排名方法-为2006年乌干达北方境内流离失所者中性别暴力流行率的研究提供了信息。在里拉区的四个境内流离失所者营地中，与随机挑选的妇女、男子、女孩（14至18岁）和男孩（14至18岁）举行了64次PRM小组讨论。讨论引出了难民营中妇女面临的问题，并通过结构化的参与方法，就其重要性和解释这些判断的叙述性叙述达成了共识。在妇女面临的基于性别的暴力形式中，强奸被列为参与者最关心的问题（平均问题等级为3.4），其次是婚内强奸（平均问题等级为4.5）和亲密伴侣暴力（平均问题等级为4.9）。与其他参与者相比，女孩将所有形式的性别暴力列为更优先的关切事项。讨论表明，这些形式的基于性别的暴力在难民营内普遍被认为是正常的。性别角色和权力、经济贫困以及营地环境的物质和社会特征成为解释性别暴力发生率的关键因素，尽管这些因素在不同形式的暴力中以不同的方式发挥作用。所有团体都承认，除交通、水、住所、粮食和安全等其他主要问题外，基于性别的暴力对居住在难民营的妇女构成重大威胁。鉴于有证据表明，难民营中亲密伴侣暴力和婚内强奸的风险明显较高，强奸问题在所有排名中的相对突出表明家庭暴力正常化。旨在减少基于性别的暴力的方案需要解决社区确定的根本原因，如经济贫困和与性别角色有关的社会规范。更一般地说，PRM似乎提供了一种有效的手段，以确定当地的建设，普遍的挑战，可以告知编程的方式。
Gender-based violence (GBV) is a significant problem in conflict-affected settings. Understanding local constructions of such violence is crucial to developing preventive and responsive interventions to address this issue. This study reports on a secondary analysis of archived data collected as part of formative qualitative work – using a group participatory ranking methodology (PRM) – informing research on the prevalence of GBV amongst IDPs in northern Uganda in 2006. Sixty-four PRM group discussions were held with women, with men, with girls (aged 14 to 18 years), and with boys (aged 14 to 18 years) selected on a randomized basis across four internally displaced persons (IDP) camps in Lira District. Discussions elicited problems facing women in the camps, and – through structured participatory methods - consensus ranking of their importance and narrative accounts explaining these judgments. Amongst forms of GBV faced by women, rape was ranked as the greatest concern amongst participants (with a mean problem rank of 3.4), followed by marital rape (mean problem rank of 4.5) and intimate partner violence (mean problem rank of 4.9). Girls ranked all forms of GBV as higher priority concerns than other participants. Discussions indicated that these forms of GBV were generally considered normalized within the camp. Gender roles and power, economic deprivation, and physical and social characteristics of the camp setting emerged as key explanatory factors in accounts of GBV prevalence, although these played out in different ways with respect to differing forms of violence. All groups acknowledged GBV to represent a significant threat - among other major concerns such as transportation, water, shelter, food and security – for women residing in the camps. Given evidence of the significantly higher risk in the camp of intimate partner violence and marital rape, the relative prominence of the issue of rape in all rankings suggests normalization of violence within the home. Programs targeting reduction in GBV need to address community-identified root causes such as economic deprivation and social norms related to gender roles. More generally, PRM appears to offer an efficient means of identifying local constructions of prevailing challenges in a manner that can inform programming.
