The problem
Intervention: SSAGE: whole-family support programming using gender-transformative approaches to engage adolescent girls, their male siblings, and caregivers together to explore gender norms, power, and violence while encouraging support and emotional connection
Who it was tested with: Adolescent girls, their male siblings, and caregivers in conflict-affected communities in Jordan and Niger.
Experience from people who deliver programmes: stories, case studies and lessons learned. Valuable for understanding how and why, and for spotting what to test next, but not a measure of effect.
"We conducted qualitative research activities, including focus group discussions, participatory group activities, and in-depth, paired, and key informant interviews with 469 SSAGE participants and program facilitators to explore SSAGE's impact on the male-female sibling dyad in both settings." The study evaluates a gender-transformative family program aimed at reducing gender-based violence through improved sibling relationships, using qualitative methods to explore reported changes in participants' experiences.
Qualitative design without comparison group or longitudinal follow-up; cannot measure magnitude of impact or determine persistence of changes; self-reported findings vulnerable to social desirability bias; limited to two countries.
