There has been tremendous progress in building and promoting evidence-based practice around parenting programming in low- and middle-income countries. However, there remains a dearth of evidence specifically examining gender transformative programming designed to address gender-based violence in humanitarian settings. To inform this gap, we examine how existing gender transformative programmatic material addresses the unique circumstances of parenting in humanitarian settings. Incorporating lessons from the field, we inform considerations of how to adapt future content to address gender-based violence in humanitarian settings. We reviewed two gender transformative programs in humanitarian settings: Safe at Home and Sibling Support for Adolescent Girls in Emergencies. Four thematic recommendations emerged for gender-transformative parenting programming in humanitarian settings to address gender-based violence, specifically intimate partner violence and violence against children. These recommendations include: 1) Recognize the diversity of families in humanitarian settings, 2) Prioritize participatory approaches from the start, 3) Set realistic parameters and goals for the specific humanitarian context, and 4) Ensure pathways to scale and sustainability within the initial program design. We advocate for broader application of these principals to support gender-transformative parenting programming that is tailored to address gender-based violence in humanitarian settings and that will continue to build the respective evidence base.
在低收入和中等收入国家，围绕育儿项目建立和推广循证实践方面已经取得了巨大进展。然而，专门研究旨在解决人道主义环境中基于性别的暴力的性别变革性项目的证据仍然匮乏。为了填补这一空白，我们研究了现有的性别变革性项目材料如何应对人道主义环境中育儿的独特情况。结合实地经验教训，我们为如何调整未来内容以解决人道主义环境中的基于性别的暴力提供参考。我们审查了两个人道主义环境中的性别变革性项目：“在家安全”和“紧急情况下为少女提供的兄弟姐妹支持”。针对人道主义环境中旨在解决基于性别的暴力，特别是亲密伴侣暴力和针对儿童的暴力的性别变革性育儿项目，出现了四项主题建议。这些建议包括：1）认识到人道主义环境中家庭的多样性，2）从一开始就优先采用参与式方法，3）为特定的人道主义背景设定现实的参数和目标，4）在初始项目设计中确保扩大规模和可持续性的途径。我们主张更广泛地应用这些原则，以支持旨在解决人道主义环境中基于性别的暴力且将继续建立各自证据基础的性别变革性育儿项目。
