Project description
Community-centred solutions to gender-based violence
Gender-based violence (GBV) transcends borders, impacting individuals irrespective of social status, location, or age. Like many countries worldwide, Pakistan grapples with a rising tide of GBV, despite extensive legislative efforts. With the support of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme, the GBV_COP_SOC project emerges as a beacon of hope. This groundbreaking initiative delves into the gendered aspects of GBV within Pakistani families in Norway and Pakistan, exploring community policing as a novel approach. It is an alternative to conventional top-down strategies. By examining the effectiveness of community-based policing in tackling GBV and understanding the dynamics of legal pluralism, this project aims to provide vital insights into curbing GBV in an ever-evolving world.
Objective
Violence occurs in all countries, rich or poor, developed or developing, irrespective of caste, creed, color, social status, wealth, urban or rural residence, or the ages of victim and aggressor. Keeping this in mind, this study is designed to understand gendered aspects of Gender based violence in Pakistan and Pakistani Families living in Norway. Despite extensive legislation and steps taken by the federal and provincial government, the plague of GBV is at rise in Pakistan and rest of the world. Interestingly, to address the GBV issue at state level, community policing has emerged as an alternative approach to conventional, top-down approach to ensure Human security . Community policing also addresses gender inclusive policing which in response provides room to address serious issues like gender based violence. Such community based approaches to policing are instrumental in addressing the sensitive issues like GBV, however, the effectiveness of these approaches in complexed contexts are under-researched and debated in recent scholarship. Similarly, it is equally interesting to understand the choices people make in legally pluralistic societies because it will provide greater understanding to reflect on how people maneuver, negotiate and choose the legal system to address GBV . At the Norwegian level, it would be very valuable to review how police works with GBV victims from immigrant communities from Pakistan .Hence, there is need to understand the gaps and challenges within the designed mechanism to curb GBV with special focus on gendered social relations, legal pluralism and why it is important for police to understand contextual complexity . Qualitative data collection method will be used to collect data both from Pakistan and Norway. Study is framed from grains from various filed of studies like Security, feminism, IR, Legal and Development Studies to ensure interdisciplinarity.
