Parenting for Respectability Uganda: Lessons in Violence Prevention from a Home-grown Parenting Programme - Recording

uprise webinar eventbrite header

Join our Uganda team for a discussion of results and recommendations from their recent cluster randomised controlled trial of a parenting programme to reduce violence against children and gender-based violence in Uganda.

Parenting for Respectability is a home-grown evidence-based parenting programme developed in Uganda that addresses child maltreatment and spousal relationships. A cluster randomised controlled trial led by the Makerere University Child Health and Development Centre was conducted between 2021-2022 to examine the programme’s impact on violence against children and gender-based violence in comparison with a once-off community lecture. Results show large positive effects reported in both areas.

Preliminary qualitative and quantitative results will be presented as well as recommendations for policymaking and scale-up, including a preview of the current PfR-Digital study.

This study was funded by Oak Foundation and led by Makerere University in collaboration with SOS Children’s Villages Uganda, the University of Glasgow MRC/CSO Social and Public Health Science Unit, and the University of Oxford Department of Social Policy and Intervention.
