Abstract

Needs assessments can be a pragmatic method to shape interventions addressing gender-based violence. They are complex endeavors even-or especially-at the local level (e.g., rape crisis centers, domestic violence shelters). Focusing on the US context, we highlight examples of the ways needs assessments can support the gender-based violence movement, and key tensions and considerations within needs assessment practice. We explore decisions that practitioners make when pursuing needs assessments and highlight conceptual and design considerations. We also provide a general discussion of needs assessment approaches. This paper aims to support nascent practitioner and researcher/evaluator work in gender-based violence needs assessments.

认识当地性别暴力需求评估的复杂性：背景下的一些关键考虑因素和矛盾。

需求评估可以成为制定解决基于性别的暴力的干预措施的一种务实方法。在地方层面（例如，强奸危机中心，家庭暴力庇护所），这些都是复杂的努力。以美国为例，我们重点介绍了需求评估如何支持基于性别的暴力运动，以及需求评估实践中的关键紧张关系和考虑因素。我们探讨了从业者在进行需求评估时做出的决定，并强调了概念和设计方面的考虑。我们还提供了需求评估方法的一般性讨论。本文旨在支持新兴从业者和研究/评估人员在基于性别的暴力需求评估方面的工作。
