(8 April 2021)\u00a0There is growing global recognition of the intersections between violence against women and violence against children. Currently there is insufficient interaction between these fields, and evidence on interventions to address these linkages is limited. It is vital to identify knowledge\/evidence gaps to address the intersections of these two forms of violence in order to strengthen prevention and response programming to achieve the best outcomes for both women and children.<\/p>\n

To address this need, the Sexual Violence Research Initiative (SVRI<\/a>), \u00a0UNICEF Innocenti<\/a>, and the\u00a0Special\u00a0Programme<\/a>\u00a0on Research, Development and Research Training in Human Reproduction (HRP)\u00a0hosted by WHO are joining efforts to develop a global research agenda on the intersections between violence against women and violence against children. The new research agenda will contribute to building knowledge in a more systematic way, ensure that research efforts make the best use of limited resources, and serve to monitor progress over time. It will also inform the implementation of the multiagency\u00a0RESPECT Women<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0INSPIRE\u00a0<\/a>frameworks, support UNICEF’s\u00a0commitment\u00a0<\/a>to respond to the gender dimensions of violence,\u00a0SRVI Grant-making<\/a>\u00a0and promote coherence in the achievement of the 2030 Sustainable Development\u00a0Goals<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Historically, research agendas have been largely driven by researchers with limited input from other stakeholders. To promote participation and minimize the risks of bias, we are proposing to adapt the Child Health and Nutrition Research Initiative\u00a0method<\/a>\u00a0and use online surveys and meetings to reach a wide group of stakeholders. SVRI, UNICEF Innocenti and WHO\/HRP together make up the Coordinating Group which will implement this effort. An Advisory Group will help develop the framework and provide technical input and guidance throughout the process. Finally, a broad group of Global Stakeholders \u2013 including researchers, advocates, policy-makers, and practitioners representing different countries, settings, disciplines and areas of focus \u2013 will provide inputs and promote dissemination and implementation of the final research agenda widely.<\/p>\n

Collaborative Approach<\/p>\n

The initiative will build on lessons learned through collaboration with the Global Shared\u00a0Research Agenda<\/a>\u00a0on Violence against Women and Girls, led by SVRI and the\u00a0Equality Institute<\/a>, with participation of UNICEF Innocenti and the WHO, among others. Close collaboration among these processes will promote complementarity of the initiatives.<\/p>\n

A stepwise approach to identifying research priorities for the intersections of violence against women and violence against children involves five broad phases:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In partnership with the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine’s\u00a0Gender Violence and Health Centre<\/a>, two systematic reviews are underway that will identify research gaps in the published literature. These reviews focus on: The\u00a0co-occurrence of intimate partner violence<\/a>\u00a0and child maltreatment: a systematic review of the common contributing factors and on\u00a0interventions that address<\/a>\u00a0both child maltreatment and intimate partner violence in a coordinated way. In addition, other relevant systematic reviews will be identified.<\/p>\n

The Coordinating and Advisory groups will develop a framework to guide a prioritisation process. Global Stakeholders will be invited to rank research priorities and provide additional inputs. The outcomes of these processes will be collated and analysed to identify research questions deemed to be of priority by the field. The Advisory Group will provide oversight of the analysis and results before they are widely disseminated, including through Global Stakeholder network.<\/p>\n

Moving forward together<\/p>\n

Researchers, practitioners, activists and donors from both the violence against women and violence against children fields are recognizing that collaboration and increased coherence in programming are essential to meet women\u2019s, adolescents\u2019, and children\u2019s needs, and to maximise synergies. Therefore, rather than focusing on research priorities for women or children separately, this initiative will specifically target gaps in knowledge on the intersections between these different but related forms of violence.<\/p>\n

A consultative, inclusive process among violence against women and violence against children stakeholders will identify areas where research can enhance coordination, alignment and consistency. The process, as much as the outcomes, will help strengthen both fields and build bridges for the benefit of children and women everywhere.<\/p>\n
