本文显示，玻利维亚的一项青年赋权计划减少了COVID-19封锁期间报告的暴力侵害女孩行为的发生率。该方案提供软技能和技术技能培训、性教育、指导和求职援助。为了衡量该计划的效果，该研究对600名易受伤害的青少年进行了随机对照试验。结果表明，该方案完成7个月后，女孩的收入增加，暴力侵害女孩行为减少。暴力行为的测量与直接自我报告的问题和列表实验。这些研究结果表明，多方面的赋权方案可以减少年轻妇女在高风险时期遭受暴力的程度。
This paper shows that a youth empowerment program in Bolivia reduced the reported prevalence of violence against girls during the COVID-19 lockdown. The program offered training in soft skills and technical skills, sexual education, mentoring and job-finding assistance. To measure the effects of the program, the study conducted a randomized control trial with 600 vulnerable adolescents. Results indicate that 7 months after its completion, the program increased girls’ earnings and decreased violence against girls. Violence was measured with both direct self-report questions and list experiments. These findings suggest that multi-faceted empowerment programs can reduce the level of violence experienced by young women during high-risk periods.
