自 COVID-19 大流行的早期阶段以来，有报道称全球范围内针对妇女的暴力行为有所增加。我们的目的是探讨与亚太地区新冠疫情期间性别暴力 (GBV) 增加相关的因素。我们对该地区 12 个国家从事性健康和生殖健康工作的专家进行了 47 次半结构化访谈。我们使用暴力的社会生态框架对数据进行了主题分析。与性别暴力增加相关的风险包括经济压力、酗酒和学校停课，以及获得健康和社会服务的机会减少。我们强调需要解决加剧的风险因素、主动识别 GBV 实例、通过建立开放和创新的沟通渠道保护妇女和女童的重要性，以及解决性别不平等和社会规范的根本问题。在 COVID-19 大流行等公共卫生危机期间，暴力行为会加剧。识别和支持面临风险的妇女，以及在封锁和行动限制期间防止家庭暴力是一个新的挑战。我们的研究结果有助于指导采取改进的监测和研究以及创新干预措施，以防止暴力以及发现和保护受害者。
Since the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, there have been reports of increased violence against women globally. We aimed to explore factors associated with reported increases in gender-based violence (GBV) during the pandemic in the Asia-Pacific region. We conducted 47 semi-structured interviews with experts working in sexual and reproductive health in 12 countries in the region. We analysed data thematically, using the socio-ecological framework of violence. Risks associated with increased GBV included economic strain, alcohol use and school closures, together with reduced access to health and social services. We highlight the need to address heightened risk factors, the importance of proactively identifying instances of GBV and protecting women and girls through establishing open and innovative communication channels, along with addressing underlying issues of gender inequality and social norms. Violence is exacerbated during public health crises, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. Identifying and supporting women at risk, as well as preventing domestic violence during lockdowns and movement restrictions is an emerging challenge. Our findings can help inform the adoption of improved surveillance and research, as well as innovative interventions to prevent violence and detect and protect victims.
