Violence Clinical Trial
Official title:
Preventing Violence Against Children in Schools: Protocol for a Cluster Randomised Controlled Trial of the EmpaTeach Behavioural Intervention in Nyarugusu Refugee Camp
To date, no interventions to prevent violence in refugee camp schools have ever been rigorously evaluated. The primary objective of this project is to test the effectiveness of the Empateach intervention to prevent physical violence from teachers to students in Nyarugusu Refugee Camp, Tanzania. Secondary objectives are to assess the impact of the Empateach intervention on student's depressive symptoms, experience of emotional violence and educational test scores. A two arm cluster RCT with parallel assignment will be conducted.
School is one of the most common settings where children may experience violence; and
emerging evidence suggests that in some settings, school staff may be one of the most common
perpetrator of violence against children.To date, no interventions to prevent violence in
refugee camp schools have ever been rigorously evaluated. The primary objective of this
project is to test the effectiveness of the Empateach intervention to prevent physical
violence from teachers to students in Nyarugusu Refugee Camp, Tanzania. Secondary objectives
are to assess the impact of the Empateach intervention on student's depressive symptoms,
experience of emotional violence and educational test scores.
The aim of the Empateach intervention is to improve 'student and teacher well-being;
self-regulation; teacher classroom management and teacher's use of positive discipline
techniques'. Participants in the intervention condition will receive a 10-week group
intervention.
A two arm cluster RCT will be conducted, with parallel assignment and an approximately 1:1
allocation ratio. Cross-sectional surveys of students will be conducted at three time points:
a baseline, a midline immediately after the 10 week intervention; and an endline 6 months
after then end of the intervention. The primary outcome, violence from school staff to
students, will be measured using an adapted version of the ICAST-CI.
