One in three Indonesian women have
experienced Gender-Based Violence (GBV) in their lifetime.
The Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic may further exacerbate
the risks of GBV. First, additional stress due to health
risks and economic uncertainty is likely to trigger conflict
within family. Second, more time spent in the same physical
space with potential perpetrators due to lockdowns may also
increase the likelihood of abuse. We collected data on
exposure to GBV through a phone survey to understand the
factors that pose the greatest risk and policy interventions
that may effectively protect women. In-person data
collection was not possible due to health concerns
associated with the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. In
order to not jeopardize the safety of the respondents
through backlash from perpetrators living in the same
households, we did not ask questions about violence
directly. Rather, based on consultations with GBV experts,
we developed a series of proxy questions, which allowed us
to infer the likely exposure to violence. |
