Gender Based Violence Data Collection

Mpowa Impact as an organisation has a mission objective to reduce / eliminate GBV and abuse of women and children everywhere we operate.In order to inform our strategy and priorities on this task, we devised a project to map out the current situation with GBV across the African continent by means of creating and populating a framework of various maturity level indicators which should be defined and then we run a data survey project/competition to gather all the input data from every country and compile into the platform.We have already scoped out the project in outline, and had preliminary discussions with a data science partner (Zindi) with the scale to support such a data gathering project via their extended network of thousands of data scientists.Expectation of the project is to work with us to pilot the GBV data analysis and capture for 1 country (Kenya), document and present the results for internal discussion and fine tuning and assist with launching the larger data capture competition with Zindi to scale up the data acquisition, but we do not expect this to be completed in 3 months.We would like to collaborate with students to support our interview process by assisting in data collection and verification of results. This will provide us with prepared datasets that are ready for further analysis.This will involve several different steps for the students, including:Primary research on critical factors affecting GBV (cultural/social, educational, economic, legal) and define an objective and (grounded in prior academic research) KPI scoring systemFamiliarizing themselves with interview procedures and participating in training activities.Assisting researchers in contacting participants and setting up interviews.Recording, organizing, and storing results according to conventions.Verifying that data is recorded accurately.Cleaning data to ensure consistency and usability.Suggesting new research questions or modifications to improve the interview process.
