Clinical Trial Summary

The proposed project seeks to implement a cluster-randomized controlled trial (RCT) to measure the impact of increasing women´s incomes and providing gender equality trainings on women´s empowerment and risk of intimate partner violence (IPV) in Colombia. This project will be the first in Latin America to evaluate rigorously the impact of a marketing intervention, alone and combined with IPV prevention training. The knowledge generated from this evaluation has the potential to identify the most effective solutions to empower women, as well as to drive transformative change in current approaches to reduce IPV and promote gender equality in highly vulnerable populations in Colombia, and worldwide.


Clinical Trial Description

The proposed project seeks to implement a cluster-randomized controlled trial (RCT) to measure the impact of increasing women´s incomes and providing gender equality trainings on women´s empowerment and risk of intimate partner violence (IPV) in Colombia. This project will be the first in Latin America to evaluate rigorously the impact of a marketing intervention, alone and combined with IPV prevention training. The knowledge generated from this evaluation has the potential to identify the most effective solutions to empower women, as well as to drive transformative change in current approaches to reduce IPV and promote gender equality in highly vulnerable populations in Colombia, and worldwide.

The goal of the project is to estimate the impact of generating livelihood opportunities and providing gender-based violence (GBV) training to reduce IPV among women in Colombia. This will generate much needed evidence on the most effective approach to empower women smallholder farmers and reduce their exposure to IPV. Investigators will conduct a cluster randomized controlled trial targeting approximately 100 smallholder farmers' associations and approximately 2700 women. Results will inform and strengthen future programming of humanitarian assistance and can be replicated in humanitarian interventions in other parts of the world.

The experimental operational research will compare two programmatic modalities and their impact on women's risk of exposure to IPV, against a comparison group where no intervention takes place. The modalities will include: (1) providing a stable income for women, and (2) providing a stable income and IPV trainings to women. The evaluation will take place in five departments: Cauca, Valle de Cauca, Meta, Caquetá, and Nariño. ;
