2 1. Catalysis India s Domestic Violence Act (2005) (some) legal ambiguity cleared up 3 rd National Family Health Survey (05-06) State by state data on VAWG prevalence (Bihar and MP worst) DFID s evidence revolution Impact Evaluation, RCTs, theories of change Ambition: evidence based approach to complex social problems. Q: What would evidence based VAW strategy look like? Critical review of DFID global VAW projects Globally; 90+ VAWG projects; little reference to evidence or results India; Oxfam We Can campaign Opportunity: to include VAW strategy in Bihar health/social sector programme (~ 145 m) 2
3 Bihar Rajasthan Madhya Pradesh Tripura Manipur Uttar Pradesh Tamil Nadu West Bengal Assam Arunachal Pradesh Orissa India Jharkhand Andhra Pradesh Maharashtra Chattisgarh Uttarakhand Gujarat Haryana Punjab Mizoram Karnataka Goa Kerala Delhi Sikkim Nagaland Meghalaya Jammu and Himachal Pradesh Percent of married women who have ever experienced spousal violence (all forms) NFHS
4 2. Analysis a) Review of risk factors in India NFHS3 regression analysis Review of Indian research b) What works? evidence review Strength of evidence: WHO scale Relevance: India / S Asia/ LIC/ World 4
5 2. Analysis VAW risk factors 50% 50% 40% Wealth quintile 12 years of educatio n Marriage after age 20 Protective Factors Birth Childhood Adolescence Marriage Mothers experience of violence No / short education Husband drinks frequently and gets drunk Makes decisions alone 300% 300% Risk factors 5
6 2. Analysis what works? Caveats. India has wide variety of policies, programmes, activities. Most research is experience based, observational. Useful, but not impact evaluation (no clear outcome measure; no counterfactual) and does not provide clear evidence of which interventions are most effective. DFID s review limited itself to evidence of impact on VAW (not best practice, documentation, anthropology etc) Strong evidence of impact (rigorous method; outcome measures include violence). Some evidence, but less rigorous methods and/or measures limited to attitudes. Weak or no evidence of impact following rigorous evaluation. Green Orange Red 6
7 2. Analysis what works? Primary Prevention Intervention Typical components Evidence of impact School based communication ( safe dates (USA - RCT) Community based communication (USA - RCT) Mass media campaigns (South Africa - RT) Exposure to mass media (India quasi experimental) Micro Finance approaches (South Africa - RCT) 10 session curriculum plus campaign and materials Community meetings, leaflets, posters Series 4 of Soul City New access to cable TV no specific content Micro Finance with training intervention on IPV Can increase knowledge; change attitudes; reduce reported violence against current partner. Male-only groups more effective. No impact on frequency or severity of new violence Small improvement in some measures of attitudes to VAW. Significant reduction in reported acceptability of VAW. After 2 years, risk of past year physical and sexual violence reduced by more than half. 7
8 2. Analysis what works? Secondary prevention / VAW responses Intervention Components Evidence of impact Routine screening in ante-natal clinics (USA) Screening to ID victims, offer support. Several months later victims reported lower levels of violence Advocacy (counseling) (SR) Advocacy for pregnant women (USA) Home visit to victim s HH by police & social worker (USA) Counseling for male perpetrators and couples (USA, RCT) Non-directive counseling Pre-natal clinic Screening & counseling 10 to 30 minute targeted home visit Group sessions couples; group sessions male perpetrators; Lower physical abuse 1-2 years after intervention. Screening & brief intervention most effective No impact on frequency or severity of new violence Repeat violence ( recidivism ) low in all three groups (3%) but also in control (4%) 8
9 2. Analysis what works? Addressing problem drinking (as an intermediate factor correlated with higher VAW incidence) Intervention Brief interventions in primary health settings (developed countries, SR of RCTs) Typical components Proactive inquiry by health workers; advice to encourage self help. Evidence of impact Significant reduction in alcohol consumption after 1 year. Longer counseling has little addl. benefit. Behavioral Couples Therapy (USA. Observational, longitudinal) Counseling of couples to support abstinence sessions over 3-6 months. For target couples, significant reduction in incidence of violence 2 years after intervention; incidence reduces to population mean. 9
10 2. Analysis what works? 10
11 3. Strategy Risk review Evidence review Bihar Health Sector Programme Govt of Bihar VAW strategy Short term: Recruit, train, support Protection Officers; Strengthen help lines Long term: design & implement evidence based VAW prevention Review existing VAW portfolio eg Oxfam India We Can campaign Bihar VAW Research & Evaluation Partnership 4+ RCTs; allied research and policy advice ante natal screening school intervention; Self Help Groups / MF Allied research & policy advice Global: DFID strategy & global evidence gap National: Policy advocacy VAWG prevention DVA implementation Madhya Pradesh & Bihar Urban Programmes Evidence based approach to Safe Cities Design, implement, Evaluate M&E Baseline & end line using experienc e of VAW as outcome measure 11

13 Finally. A reality check Bihar exploratory study: Men s view on wife beating 1. it is therapeutic, keeps them from straying 2. Helps to allay men s own insecurity 3. Show of masculinity, non beaters are eunuchs 4. Society and God created men to dominate women in every way. Dhol, sudra, pashu, nari sab taran ke adhikari in order to emit sound from the drum, get work done from low caste people, control animals and women, they had to be beaten. Tulsidas 13
