Analysis of Perceptions of Socioeconomic Determinants of Gender-Based Violence in Africa: A Multilevel Analysis
Downloads
This article presents a multi-level analysis of the determinants of gender-based violence in Africa using a subjective approach. The study aims to examine the factors that influence gender violence and to understand their role in African society. The results highlight individual determinants such as poverty and the experience of harassment, as well as social and political determinants such as the presence of government and the police. Economic analysis of the results reveals the importance of combating poverty and promoting women's economic empowerment in reducing gender violence in Africa. The economic implications also highlight the role of the media and social networks in raising awareness of this problem. In conclusion, this article contributes to the understanding of the determinants of gender violence in Africa and calls for strategic interventions to prevent and reduce this worrying phenomenon.
