A public health project that seeks to capture and reduce the witnessing of inter-parental violence, and the intergenerational transmission of violence to adolescents. The project aims to improve institutional supportive structures within public secondary schools, to discourage the acceptance or use of violence in future relationships. It combines a powerful blend of research and public health programs to address reproductive health and family well-being.

Identifying the Issue!

We observed that Intimate Partner Violence (Inter-parental Violence) had a significant effect on the physical, mental, and social well-being of children and adolescents. Children witnessing these violent behaviours were prone to exhibit difficulties in social interactions, endured emotional strain, and other psychological challenges, building into several negative outcomes such as bullying, unhealthy relationships, low self-esteem, substance abuse, and even criminal behaviours, with effects persisting through adulthood.

Our Approach!

The Stand Against Recycled Violence (STAR) Project: an initiative to counter the intergenerational recycling of violence. We combined a powerful blend of research and public health programs, to address the incidence of inter-parental violence, bullying (peer violence), and violence justification. The strategies of the STAR project help us to improve institutional supportive structures within secondary schools, and to discourage the acceptance and use of violence in future relationships.
