The Impact of Sexual and Gender-Based Violence on the Dynamics of Conflict

该项目旨在了解性暴力和基于性别的暴力对冲突动态的影响。它将采用一种创新的混合方法设计，研究1998年至2018年期间41个受冲突影响的国家报告的所有性暴力和基于性别的暴力事件。它将产生新的知识，确定性暴力和基于性别的暴力罪行如何以及何时影响冲突的开始和强度。该项目的预期成果包括确定最高风险的局势、暴力的阶段以及改进对这种暴力的风险评估。该项目将大大有助于在全球受冲突影响的局势中防止性暴力和基于性别的暴力。

This project aims to understand the impact of sexual and gender-based violence on the dynamics of conflict. With an innovative mixed method design it will study all reported incidences of sexual and gender-based violence in 41 conflict-affected countries between 1998 and 2018. It will generate new knowledge establishing how and when crimes of sexual and gender-based violence affect the onset and intensity of conflict. The expected outcomes of this project include the identification of the most high-risk situations, the phases of violence, and the improvement of risk assessments for such violence. The project will significantly benefit the prevention of sexual and gender-based violence in conflict-affected situations globally.
