"I Didn't Want to Get Married": Using Zines to Increase Understanding About the 'Honour'-Based Abuse, Forced Marriage, and Modern Slavery Relationship

该项目响应了国际社会对消除强迫婚姻这一现代奴隶制(MS)和暴力侵害妇女和女孩行为的呼吁(见联合国可持续发展目标5.2、5.3和8.7)，以及幸存者对英国基于名誉的虐待(HBA)和强迫婚姻的认识，这些呼吁超越了对文化和宗教的先入为主的观念。据估计，2016年任何一天都有1540万人经历FM，每年至少有5000人在“荣誉”谋杀中被谋杀。FOI的一项请求显示，2010-2014年间，英国警察部队记录了1.1万起“荣誉”犯罪案件。自2019年以来，记录这些罪行并将信息传递给内政部一直是强制性的。2021年，内政部对调查结果进行了“实验性统计”，结果显示，在截至2020年3月的一年中，与HBA相关的犯罪记录为2383起，到2021年增加到2725起。尽管数字很大，但这些数字是向警方报告不足的迹象：自2008年以来，Karma Nirvana(KN)接到了超过8万个打给他们的HBA帮助热线(包括FM)的电话。2021年，7025个电话被标记为与HBA有关，2232个与FM有关，93个与童婚有关，310个与现代奴隶制有关，21个与人口贩运有关。同样，英国政府的强迫婚姻部门在2012-2020年间处理了11519起案件。报告不足、负有法定保障责任的组织和个人缺乏认同感、支助质量参差不齐，以及在某些情况下--那些寻求帮助的人更容易受到伤害--这些都是普遍缺乏对HBA和FM的理解和认识的结果。拟议的项目是基于作为海伦·麦凯布博士的AHRC资助项目的一部分进行的研究：“拥有并保持”了解强迫婚姻和现代奴隶制之间的关系“(AH/S012788/1)，该项目试图回答何时(如果有的话)FM是MS的规范性问题。为了提高该项目对新用户社区的价值和更广泛的好处，我们将与英国HBA和FM的幸存者合作，制作关于HBA、FM、它们与KN女士对现代奴隶制以及FM和其他形式的HBA的呼吁之间的关系突显了这些现象之间仍未探索的更广泛的联系。我们将与幸存者一起讨论我们对FM和MS的调查结果，以获得他们的基本意见和反馈，并确保他们拥有关于该项目的背景信息。我们将与我们的项目合作伙伴Karma Nirvana(KN)和幸存者艺术社区(SAC)合作，共同开发一系列幸存者工作坊，利用参与性的艺术方法讲述他们自己的经历。参与者将从KN的幸存者大使小组(SAP)招募，SAC将牵头实施研讨会，在这些研讨会中，幸存者将有机会以新的创造性方式讲述他们的故事、联系和建立社区。制作的艺术品将在利兹、诺丁汉和格拉斯哥的活动中展出，幸存者不仅有机会在公共空间看到他们的作品，还将有机会谈论他们的过程和他们的生活经历。我们还将创建一本杂志，以幸存者的艺术、小说、诗歌和关于HBA、FM、MS的教育信息为特色，一旦出版，将在Zine和妇女图书馆以及英国的Zine节日上提供。杂志还将在线托管在我们的项目网站forcedmarriageresearch.ac.uk和项目合作伙伴的网站上。与公众的焦点小组将被用来评估我们的杂志对改变对FM、HBA及其与女士的关系的假设的影响。我们将录制一个播客，提供关于HBA、FM和MS的信息，并采访项目合作伙伴。影响调查结果将在项目报告和政策简报中公布，并将在小组会议上介绍“基于荣誉”的虐待行为，以及在与强迫婚姻股和反奴隶制组织举行的知识交流讲习班上发表。

This project responds to international calls for the eradication of Forced Marriage (FM) as a form of modern slavery (MS) and violence against women and girls (see UN Sustainable Development Goals 5.2, 5.3, and 8.7) and from survivors for increased understanding of Honour Based Abuse (HBA) and FM in the UK beyond pre-conceived ideas about culture and religion. An estimated 15.4 million people experienced FM on any given day in 2016 and at least 5,000 are murdered in "honour" killings annually. An FOI request revealed that 11,000 cases of "honour" crime were recorded by UK police forces in 2010-2014. Recording these offences, and passing that information on to the Home Office, has been mandatory since 2019. In 2021, the Home Office produced "experimental statistics" on the results which revealed that 2383 HBA-related offences were recorded in the year ending March 2020, increasing to 2,725 in 2021. Though large, these numbers are a sign of under-reporting to police: Karma Nirvana (KN) have received over 80,000 calls to their HBA helpline (including FM) since 2008. In 2021, 7025 calls were tagged as being related to HBA, 2232 for FM, 93 for child marriage, 310 for modern slavery, and 21 for trafficking. Similarly, the UK government's Forced Marriage Unit handled 11,519 cases in 2012-2020. Under-reporting, lack of identification by organisations and individuals with statutory safeguarding responsibilities, uneven quality of support, and - in some cases - increased vulnerability for those who have reached out for help are all the result of a general lack of understanding and awareness of HBA and FM. The proposed project is based on research conducted as part of Dr Helen McCabe's AHRC-funded project: "To Have and To Hold" Understanding the Relationship Between Forced Marriage and Modern Slavery' (AH/S012788/1) which sought to answer the normative problem of when, if ever, FM is MS. To enhance the value and wider benefit of this project to new user communities, we will work with survivors of HBA and FM in the UK to produce participatory artwork and a zine about HBA, FM, and their relationship to MS. KN's tagging of calls for modern slavery as well as FM and other forms of HBA highlights broader connections between these phenomena that remain unexplored. We will workshop our findings about FM and MS with survivors to gain their essential input and feedback and to ensure they have contextual information about the project. We will collaborate with our project partners, Karma Nirvana (KN) and Survivor Arts Community (SAC) to co-develop a series of survivor workshops about their own experiences using participatory arts-based methods. Participants will be recruited from KN's Survivor Ambassador Panel (SAP) and SAC will lead in the implementation of workshops in which survivors will have the opportunity to tell their stories, connect, and build community in new creative ways. Art produced will be exhibited at events in Leeds, Nottingham and Glasgow, and survivors will have the opportunity to not only see their work in a public space, but to talk about the process and their lived experience. We will also create a zine featuring survivors' art, fiction, poetry, and educational information about HBA, FM, MS. Once printed, it will be made available in zine and women's libraries and at zine festivals in the UK. The zine will also be hosted online on our project website forcedmarriageresearch.ac.uk, and on project partners' websites. Focus groups with members of the public will be used to assess the impact of our zine for changing assumptions about FM, HBA and their relationship to MS. We will record a podcast with informative information about HBA, FM and MS, and interviews with project partners. Impact findings will be published in a project report and policy briefings and at presentations to meetings of the APPG on 'Honour' Based Abuse, and at knowledge exchange workshops with the Forced Marriage Unit and anti-slavery organisations.
