OSCE-led Survey on the Well-being and Safety of Women in South-East Europe and Eastern Europe

The main goal of the study is to examine the prevalence of violence against women and girls and its consequences on women’s health and well-being for the purposes of policy-making. The main research questions were: (1) What are the attitudes and norms concerning gender roles and violence against women? (2) What is the extent of violence experienced by women in the area covered by the survey? (3) Which forms of violence do women experience? (4) Who are the perpetrators of violence against women? (5) What are the consequences of violence for women’s health and well-being? (6) Do women report their experiences to the police or other authorities or organizations? If not, why not? (7) Are there differences between women’s experiences of violence depending on their age, education, professional status, income or whether they are from a minority group or a rural area? (8) The study also aimed to achieve a better understanding of the above in light of whether women had experienced an armed conflict based on the definitions used in the study.

本研究的核心目标为考察针对妇女与女童的暴力行为发生率，及其对妇女健康与福祉的影响，为政策制定提供实证支撑。主要研究问题如下：(1) 针对性别角色与针对妇女的暴力行为，存在怎样的态度与社会规范？(2) 本次调查覆盖区域内的妇女所经历的暴力行为程度如何？(3) 妇女会经历哪些形式的暴力行为？(4) 针对妇女的暴力行为的施暴者均为哪些群体？(5) 暴力行为对妇女的健康与福祉会产生哪些影响？(6) 妇女是否会向警方或其他当局机构、组织报备自身的遭遇？若未报备，原因是什么？(7) 妇女的暴力经历是否会因年龄、受教育程度、职业身份、收入水平，抑或是是否属于少数群体或来自农村地区而存在差异？(8) 本研究还旨在结合研究中采用的定义，基于妇女是否曾经历武装冲突的情况，进一步深化对上述问题的理解。
