RESEARCH PROJECT 6: GENDER-BASED VIOLENCE
Research Area: Gender-based violence (GBV)
Project Title: Perceptions of gender-based violence in South Africa
Number of Students: Limited to 300 students
Project description
• Gender-based violence is one of the most common forms of violence both globally and in
South Africa, with deleterious consequences for women
• In 2020, 51.1% of the South African population was female, who had the highest
unemployment and poverty rates, with black African women being most vulnerable with an
unemployment rate of over 30%
• South Africa is characterised by high crime levels, with crime being understood to be a
“symptom of social and economic inequalities”
• Globally, 35% of women have experienced sexual and/or physical intimate partner violence
or non-partner sexual violence
• Approximately twenty-two per cent (22%) of South African women have experienced a
form of violence from their intimate partner, and 50% have experienced a form of violence
by a friend or acquaintance
• Gender-based violence is a societal concern that is said to be more prevalent in developing
countries, and is often associated with gendered power dynamics that contribute to gender
inequality.
• Gendered power dynamics and gender-based violence are often maintained by individual,
social and cultural contexts
• According to literature, violence against women is associated with the expression of toxic
masculinity, and as a means to gain respect from and control over women
• In patriarchal societies, men are viewed as superior to women and children
• Despite the efforts of many governments to curtail the high rate of violence against women
(and children), it still remains one of the foremost human rights violations globally, and
particularly in South Africa

Some of the causes of GBV
• Gendered power dynamics,
• patriarchy and gender inequality,
• misogyny,
• violence in societies,
• substance abuse
• and a problematic justice system with a lack of resources
• In this project, you will explore the perceptions of gender-based violence, its attributed
causes and consequences, amongst adult South Africans.
• DATA COLLECTION: This study will be done through a qualitative cross-sectional survey,
which will be hosted on the research platform Qualtrics.
• The chosen methodology for data analysis is thematic analysis
ASSIGNMENT INFORMATION FOR THE PORTFOLIO
FOURTH ASSIGNMENT
• ASSESSMENT NUMBER 24
• The final assessment is your research report.
• The research report must not exceed twenty (20) pages (excluding the front page, table of
contents, references, and appendices).
Your research report should
• describe the study,
• provide the findings,
• and discuss the findings and their implications in relation to the literature you have
reviewed.
