GCRF_NF39: COVID-19 Child Abuse Prevention Emergency Response

新冠肺炎育儿项目将在新冠肺炎疫情期间惠及发援会国家的5,700万个家庭，为预防针对儿童的暴力行为和减轻育儿压力提供循证资源。发援会国家正面临影响深远的COVID流行病，出现周期性的封锁和学校停课(Mahler，2020)。全球的父母和照顾者都在照顾压力异常大的孩子。即使是最安全的家庭也在努力管理长期封锁中的儿童。压力、贫困、饮酒、受限和拥挤的条件加剧了大喊大叫和肢体暴力(梅克，2017)，所有这些都在新冠肺炎下加剧。联合国儿童基金会报告称，全球虐待儿童问题不断升级，对健康、社会和经济产生了严重影响。我们将与世界卫生组织、联合国儿童基金会、全球终止暴力伙伴关系、联合国毒品和犯罪问题办公室、美国国际开发署、美国疾病控制中心和其他非政府组织合作，包括特奥会、世界无孤儿组织和当地的DAC国家社区组织：1.利用最好的证据，将已证明有效的育儿计划调整为DAC国家的可扩展资源。这将包括基于短信的系统和针对家庭的低数据IR或离线应用支持。2.通过与联合国机构、非政府组织和宗教组织的伙伴关系，在最初的14个发援会国家向5700万个家庭提供育儿支助方案和资源。将资源翻译成相关的发援会国家语言，以便于推广。通过在线事后重复调查和对发援会家庭的深入定性研究，评估提供机制、成本及其对减少暴力、育儿和压力的影响。我们将在研究翻译方面取得罕见的结果：直接向发援会国家的5700万个家庭提供支持。这是非常物有所值的，在新冠肺炎期间，每个接受循证暴力预防支持的发改委家庭花费不到一便士(0.008 GB)。

The COVID-19 Parenting project will reach 57 million families in DAC countries during the COVID epidemic, with evidence-based resources to prevent violence against children and reduce parenting stress. DAC countries are facing far-reaching COVID epidemics, with cyclical periods of lockdowns and school closures (Mahler, 2020). Parents and caregivers globally are caring for children under exceptionally stressful conditions. Even the most secure families are struggling to manage children within extended lockdowns. Shouting and physical violence are worsened by stress, poverty, alcohol use, confined and crowded conditions (Meinck, 2017), all heightened under COVID-19. UNICEF reports global escalation in child abuse, with severe health, social and economic impacts. We will work with the World Health Organisation, UNICEF, the Global Partnership to End Violence, UNODC, USAID, the US Centers for Disease Control and other NGOs including the Special Olympics, World Without Orphans and local DAC country community organisations to: 1. Adapt parenting programs with demonstrated effectiveness into scalable resources for DAC countries, using the best evidence. This will include text message-based systems and low-data ir or offline app support for families. 2. Deliver parenting support programs and resources to 57 million families in an initial 14 DAC countries, through partnerships with UN agencies, NGOs and faith-based organisations. Translate resources into relevant DAC country languages to facilitate uptake.3. Evaluate mechanisms of delivery, costs and their impact on reduction in violence, parenting and stress through online pre-post repeated surveys and in-depth qualitative research with families in DAC settings.We will achieve a rare outcome for research translation: direct delivery of support to 57 million families in DAC countries. It is exceptional value for money, with a cost to UKRI of less than one penny (£0.008) per DAC family receiving evidence-based violence prevention support during COVID-19.
