Geçim kaynaklarına sahip olma yeteneği ile kırsal kadınların cinsiyete dayalı şiddet deneyimi arasındaki ilişki: Nijerya'nın Osun eyaletinden dersler

Öz

Bu çalışma, Nijerya'nın Osun Eyaleti'ndeki kırsal kesimde yaşayan kadınların geçim sağlama kapasitesi ile cinsiyete dayalı şiddet (CDŞ) deneyimleri arasındaki ilişkiyi ortaya koymuştur. Çalışma kapsamında 210 kırsal kesim kadınını seçmek için çok aşamalı bir örnekleme yöntemi kullanılmış; veriler betimsel ve çıkarımsal istatistikler aracılığıyla analiz edilmiştir. Örneklemdeki kadınların yaş ortalaması 48±10 yıl olup, %83,3'ü Yoruba etnik grubuna mensup, %68,6'sı evli ve %71,9'u örgün eğitim almış bireylerden oluşmaktadır. Kadınların yarıdan fazlasının (%53,81) geçim sağlama kapasitesi düşükken, yaklaşık üçte ikisi (%65,2) yüksek düzeyde CDŞ deneyimi bildirmiştir; bu şiddet türünün algılanan başlıca nedeni ise 3,10'luk ağırlıklı ortalama puan (WMS) ile cinsel ilişkiyi reddetme olmuştur. Etnik köken (χ2=15,767, p=0,001), eğitim düzeyi (r=10,844, p=0,013), temel meslek (χ2=18,620, p=0,001), kozmopolitlik düzeyi (χ2=18,767, p=0,000), hane halkı büyüklüğü (r=0,036, p=0,000) ve tahmin edilen aylık ana (r=0,369, p=0,000) ile yan (r=0,437, p=0,000) gelirler ile kadınların CDŞ deneyimleri arasında anlamlı ilişkiler saptanmıştır. Geçim sağlama kapasitesi (r= 0,200, p=0,004) de kadınların CDŞ deneyimleri ile anlamlı düzeyde ilişkili bulunmuştur. Kırsal kesimdeki kadınların geçim sağlama kapasitesi, CDŞ deneyimleriyle doğrudan bağlantılıdır. Bu nedenle, CDŞ'ye maruz kalan kadınlar için öncelikle destek ağları oluşturulmalı ve ardından bu kadınlar çalışma bölgesindeki ilgili uzmanlık hizmetlerine yönlendirilmelidir.

Relating livelihood ability with rural women’s experience of gender-based violence: lessons from Osun state, Nigeria

Öz

This study established the relationship between livelihood ability and rural women’s experience of GBV in Osun State, Nigeria. A multistage sampling procedure was used to select 210 rural women for the study. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. The mean age of the sampled rural women was 48±10 years, 83.3% belong to the Yoruba ethnic group, 68.6% were married, while 71.9% had formal education. More than half (53.81%) had low livelihood ability, while about two-thirds (65.2%) reported high experience of GBV, with the leading perceived cause of GBV being sex denial, having a weighted mean score (WMS) of 3.10. Significant relationships were found between ethnicity (χ2=15.767, p=0.001), educational level (r=10.844, p=0.013), major occupation (χ2=18.620, p=0.001), cosmopoliteness (χ2=18.767, p=0.000), household size (r=0.036, p=0.000), estimated monthly major (r=0.369, p=0.000) as well as minor (r=0.437, p=0.000) incomes and women’s experience of GBV. Livelihood ability (r= 0.200, p=0.004) was significantly related to women’s experience of GBV. Rural women’s livelihood ability is directly related to their experience of GBV. Hence, initial support networks should be created for women experiencing GBV, followed by onward referrals to appropriate specialized services in the study area.
