PIM Webinar Cash transfers and intimate partner violence: Case studies from Ethiopia and Ghana Organized by PIM and the Cash Transfer and Intimate Partner Violence Research Collaborative in support of the annual 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence campaign December 10, 2021 A growing evidence base demonstrates that cash transfer programs, primarily meant to address poverty and vulnerability, are promising interventions to reduce intimate partner violence. However, knowledge gaps remain on whether findings generalize across program designs, as well as what mechanisms underlie impacts. This webinar will present results from two case studies in Ghana and Ethiopia that draw upon qualitative research of national cash transfer programs combined with complementary programming. Both studies examine pathways of influence with consideration of contextual factors such as gender norms, household dynamics, and the role of “plus” programming.
