Details

This indicator measures the proportion of persons of concern who disagree that a husband is justified in hitting or beating his wife for a list of specific reasons. This serves as a proxy indicator for those who do not accept violence against women.

This module is taken from Domestic Violence Module from DHS and similar module used by MICS. Due to its sensitivity, this module is only recommended for face-to-face surveys.

Data Collection Safeguards

Enumerators (and data collection teams) must be trained on GBV safe disclosures and referrals prior to undertaking household surveys (or at least get a briefing on the GBV referral pathway in their area). To ensure quality feedback and limit risks of harm, it is advisable to administer the survey to members of the household separately in confidential spaces (consider using interview rooms at community centres in settings where layout of communities' homes do not allow for confidential discussions).

It is also recommended to ensure same-sex enumerators to minimize risks of SEA particularly for female respondents.
