经济不稳定、内乱和灾难时期与暴力侵害妇女和儿童行为增加的无数风险因素有关。流行病也不例外。事实上,大流行病的区域或全球性质以及与之相关的恐惧和不确定性提供了一种可能加剧或引发各种形式暴力的有利环境。了解这些动态背后的机制对于制定政策和计划应对措施以减轻不利影响非常重要。基于现有的出版物和灰色文献,我们记录了九个主要的通过以下方面的影响,将流行病与暴力侵害妇女/儿童行为联系起来的(直接和间接)途径:(1)经济不安全和与贫困相关的压力,(2)隔离和社会孤立,(3)与灾难和冲突相关的骚乱和不稳定,(4)由于人口结构变化而面临剥削关系,(5)减少医疗服务的可用性和获得急救人员的机会,(6)妇女无法暂时逃离虐待伴侣,(7)病毒特有的暴力来源,(8)在应对工作中面临暴力和胁迫,(9)对医护人员的暴力行为。我们还提出了其他途径,有限的或轶事证据可能会影响较小的亚组。基于这些机制,我们提出了八项政策和方案,供各国政府、民间社会、国际组织和社区组织采取行动。最后,由于将流行病与各种形式的暴力侵害妇女/儿童行为直接联系起来的研究很少,我们制定了一个包括三个主要方面的研究议程,以更好地(1)了解问题的严重性,(2)阐明机制及其与其他社会和经济因素的联系,(3)为干预和应对方案提供信息。我们希望这篇论文可以被研究人员,从业者和政策制定者用来帮助进一步提供证据和政策行动,同时将VAW/C置于更广泛的跨部门性别和女权主义知情的流行病应对需求中。
Times of economic uncertainty, civil unrest and disaster are linked to a myriad of risk factors for increased violence against women and children (VAW/C). Pandemics are no exception. In fact, the regional or global nature and associated fear and uncertainty associated with pandemics provide an enabling environment that may exacerbate or spark diverse forms of violence. Understanding mechanisms underlying these dynamics are important for crafting policy and program responses to mitigate adverse effects. Based on existing published and grey literature, we document nine main (direct and indirect) pathways linking pandemics and VAW/C, through effects of (on):(1) economic insecurity and poverty-related stress, (2) quarantines and social isolation, (3) disaster and conflict-related unrest and instability, (4) exposure to exploitative relationships due to changing demographics, (5) reduced health service availability and access to first responders, (6) inability of women to temporarily escape abusive partners, (7) virus-specific sources of violence, (8) exposure to violence and coercion in response efforts, and (9) violence perpetrated against health care workers. We also suggest additional pathways with limited or anecdotal evidence likely to effect smaller sub-groups. Based on these mechanisms, we suggest eight policy and program responses for action by governments, civil society, international and community-based organizations. Finally, as research linking pandemics directly to diverse forms of VAW/C is scarce, we lay out a research agenda comprising three main streams, to better (1) understand the magnitude of the problem, (2) elucidate mechanisms and linkages with other social and economic factors and (3) inform intervention and response options. We hope this paper can be used by researchers, practitioners, and policymakers to help inform further evidence generation and policy action while situating VAW/C within the broader need for intersectional gender- and feminist-informed pandemic response.
