这项多国研究使用来自138，097名妇女的人口与健康调查（DHS）数据，探讨撒哈拉以南非洲（SSA）非伴侣暴力（NPV）与卫生，水和城市化之间的关系。每15名妇女中就有一名报告在过去12个月内遭受过非伴侣的身体和/或性暴力;在该区域内，发生率为2.3%-11.3%。当包括建筑环境变量时，20个国家中有11个国家的净现值解释模型得到改善。结果表明，在该区域的一些国家，特别是在城市环境中，卫生和供水与净现值风险有关。
This multicountry study used Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS) data from 138,097 women to explore the relationship between non-partner violence (NPV) and sanitation, water, and urbanization in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). One out of 15 women reports having experienced physical and/or sexual violence by a non-partner during the previous 12 months; within the region, prevalence ranges from 2.3-11.3%. Explanatory models of NPV improve in 11 of the 20 countries when the built environment variables are included. The results suggest that sanitation and water access are associated with risk of NPV in a number of countries in the region, particularly in urban settings.
