Synopsis "Gender-Based Violence in Sub-Saharan Africa: Prevalence, Patterns, and Policies (Breaking Boundaries: New Horizons in Gender & Sexualities)"

Gender-Based Violence in Sub-Saharan Africa: Prevalence, Patterns, and Policies examines the multifaceted issue of gender-based violence (GBV) in Sub-Saharan Africa, offering an in-depth exploration of its prevalence, underlying patterns, and the policies and frameworks that aim at addressing it. The book provides a regional overview on the prevalence of GBV, drawing on a wealth of statistical data and case studies, and examines the diverse forms of gender-based violence on the African sub-region, including domestic violence, sexual harassment, trafficking, and harmful traditional practices, highlighting the complex social, cultural, and economic factors that create and sustain these abuses.In analyzing GBV patterns, contributing authors investigate the dynamics of power and control that underpin gender-based violence, exploring how the intersection of identities such as class, migration, and sexuality influence individuals' experiences. The policy component evaluates international, national, and local responses to GBV, and reviews existing legal frameworks, protection mechanisms, and support services, identifying both best practices and significant gaps. It also considers the effectiveness of public awareness campaigns, education programs, and community-based interventions in shifting societal attitudes and reducing the incidence of GBV. This book provides essential insights for policymakers, researchers, students, and activists committed to combating GBV and supporting survivors.
