Taking Violence Against Women Arts

项目摘要

South Africa (SA) has one of the highest rates of gender-based violence (GBV) in the world: a woman is murdered every three-hours, and gendered assault is 5x higher than the global average (STATS-SA 2019). GBV is recognised not only as a serious violation of human rights, but also as a significant public health concern that includes injuries, gynaecological disorders, mental health disorders (including depression and post-traumatic stress disorder), adverse pregnancy outcomes, and sexually-transmitted diseases, including HIV and AIDS. GBV is also a barrier to social and economic development, rendering many survivors unable to work or otherwise move freely in society. On 9/11/2019, SA President Cyril Ramaphosa proclaimed GBV a national crisis, promising government debate to revise domestic violence laws and to initiate a national intervention plan that challenges patriarchal norms and engages at community levels. This project comes in response to his call, introducing arts-based interventions to provide support to GBV survivors, shift societal norms by promoting gender equality and behavioural change, strengthen law enforcement, improve economic power of women and take steps to enhance GBV legal and policy frameworks. It is the first primary preventative and support strategy for GBV in rural Eastern Cape, with actions taking place in the AmaZizi chiefdom, which, located within the AbaThembu Kingdom, Eastern Cape, comprises nine villages: kwaZangashe, Ngcobo, Ngqamakwe, Ugie, Elliot, Maclear, Cala, Idutywa and Gcuwa. Arts-based actions planned will help improve response services for survivors through capacity-building workshops, support communities to re-evaluate the social norms that lead to GBV through art exhibits and festival, strengthen legal and policy frameworks by facilitating evidence-base reform and amendments to current policies and providing training to local law enforcement, and improve the economic power of women through arts-based entrepreneurial training. Although AmaZizi is the target population, this project will serve as a test-bed for building support for wider GBV policy changes across South Africa, particularly in rural regions, and informing future prevention efforts globally. This project is led by ethnomusicologist and anthropologist Nanette de Jong (Newcastle University), who has worked extensively in South Africa for 15 years and is an expert on gender, culture and community, having carried out interventions that mitigate contextual influences on HIV/AIDS and GBV. The Co-I is AmaZizi traditional leader, Chief Pokwana ka Menziwa, who also serves as chairperson of the NGO, Vusizwe Foundation, chairperson of South African Society of Archivists, Head of Research and Development with Oral Historical Association of South Africa, Advisory Board member of the Department of Arts and Culture and member of African Diaspora Forum. Partners include Dutwya Law Enforcement, Department of Social Development, Department of Arts and Culture, AIDS Alliance, as well as Eastern Cape-based NGOs Impendulo Foundation, Theatre for Life and Ngcobo-Zintombizodwa, which work with GBV survivors in the region through the arts-based interventions.

南非（SA）是世界上性别暴力（GBV）发生率最高的国家之一：每三小时就有一名妇女被谋杀，性别暴力事件比全球平均水平高出5倍（STATS-SA 2019）。基于性别的暴力不仅被认为是严重侵犯人权的行为，而且被认为是一个重大的公共卫生问题，包括伤害、妇科疾病、精神健康疾病（包括抑郁症和创伤后应激障碍）、不良妊娠结果和性传播疾病，包括艾滋病毒和艾滋病。基于性别的暴力也是社会和经济发展的一个障碍，使许多幸存者无法工作或以其他方式在社会中自由行动。 2019年11月9日，南非总统西里尔·拉马福萨宣布性别暴力是一场国家危机，承诺政府辩论修改家庭暴力法，并启动一项国家干预计划，挑战父权制规范，并在社区层面参与。该项目响应他的呼吁，引入基于艺术的干预措施，为基于性别的暴力幸存者提供支持，通过促进性别平等和改变行为改变社会规范，加强执法，提高妇女的经济实力，并采取措施加强基于性别的暴力法律的和政策框架。这是东开普省农村地区针对基于性别的暴力的第一个初级预防和支助战略，在Amazizi酋长领地采取了行动，该酋长领地位于东开普省AbaThembu王国，由九个村庄组成：kwaZangashe、Ngcobo、Ngqamakwe、Ugie、Elliot、Maclear、Cala、Idutywa和Gcuwa。计划开展的基于艺术的行动将有助于通过能力建设讲习班改善对幸存者的应对服务，通过艺术展览和艺术节支持社区重新评估导致性别暴力的社会规范，通过促进循证改革和现行政策修正案以及为地方执法部门提供培训来加强法律的和政策框架，并通过基于艺术的创业培训提高妇女的经济实力。虽然Amazizi是目标人群，但该项目将作为一个试验平台，为南非各地，特别是农村地区更广泛的基于性别的暴力政策改革提供支持，并为全球未来的预防工作提供信息。该项目由民族音乐学家和人类学家Nanette de Jong（纽卡斯尔大学）领导，她在南非广泛工作了15年，是性别、文化和社区方面的专家，并采取了干预措施，减轻了对艾滋病毒/艾滋病和基于性别的暴力的背景影响。协调员是Amazizi族的传统领袖Pokwana ka Menziwa酋长，他还担任非政府组织Vusizwe基金会主席、南非档案学家协会主席、南非口述历史协会研究和发展负责人、艺术和文化部咨询委员会成员以及非洲移民论坛成员。合作伙伴包括Dutwya执法部门、社会发展部、艺术和文化部、艾滋病联盟，以及设在东开普省的非政府组织Imagio基金会、生命剧院和Ngcobo-Zintombizodwa，这些组织通过基于艺术的干预措施与该地区的性别暴力幸存者合作。
