暴力阻碍人类安全生活的自由,并可能使许多社区陷入贫困陷阱。学术界、政策制定者和广泛从事减贫方案、包括预防暴力方案工作的从业人员面临的一个关键挑战是缺乏关于暴力发生率和性质的可靠和可比数据。本文件提出了一个多层面贫穷问题单的住户调查模块,可用于补充关于暴力侵害财产和人身行为的发生率以及对安全和保障的看法的现有数据。暴力与贫穷密不可分,尽管因果关系的方向即使不是循环的,也是有争议的。该单元使用明确的标准化定义,这些定义可以跨文化翻译,并明确区分不同类型的人际暴力,从而弥合犯罪与冲突之间的联系。
Violence impedes human freedom to live safely and securely, and can sustain poverty traps in many communities. A key challenge for academics, policy-makers and practitioners working broadly in programmes aimed at poverty alleviation, including violence prevention, is the lack of reliable and comparable data on the incidence and nature of violence. This paper proposes a household survey module for a multidimensional poverty questionnaire that can be used to complement the available data on the incidence of violence against property and the person, as well as perceptions of security and safety. Violence and poverty are inextricably linked, although the direction of causality is contested if not circular. The module uses standardized definitions that are clear, can be translated cross-culturally and clearly disaggregate different types of interpersonal violence, thereby bridging the crime–conflict nexus.
