Abstract

The aim of this research is to assess the impact of Covid-19 and the associated responses - including public health measures and the emergency conditional cash transfer - on domestic and family violence against women and children and to develop guidelines for a gender-inclusive post-Covid recovery plan. The project is linked to an ongoing large, representative and longitudinal domestic violence study, the PCSVDF-Mulher (Survey of Socio-economic Conditions and Domestic and Family Violence against Women).
