Private Violence Public Concern- Intimate Partner Violence In Humanitarian Settings, Practice Brief
Abstract
Private Violence, Public Concern’s qualitative findings deepen understanding of women’s experience of intimate partner violence in displaced settings and highlights the lack of programming that exists to effectively prevent and respond to intimate partner violence. The study took place in 2014 in Domiz camp in Iraq, Dadaab camp in Kenya, and Ajuong Thok settlement in South Sudan, and focused on three key questions: What are the drivers and nature of intimate partner violence in humanitarian settings?; How do displaced women experience intimate partner violence?; and What are women’s suggestions for how humanitarian organizations can improve prevention and response to intimate partner violence? This brief presents key findings from the study, draws on knowledge and insights from decades of IRC experi¬ence working with women and girls in crisis settings, including research on intimate partner violence in West Africa and Syria and presents recommendations that are relevant to the humanitarian community working both within and outside of formal camp settings.
