Abstract

Research on work with survivors of gender-based violence (GBV) has primarily focused on its emotional burden and implications for practitioners' well-being. This study explores how professionals working in GBV services experience and make sense of their work, drawing on 23 interviews analyzed using reflexive thematic analysis. Participants' accounts revealed challenges related to the persistence of GBV and sexism in society and to job precarity, but also highlighted the meaning they attribute to their work as a political commitment to supporting women and contributing to social change. The findings underscore the importance of understanding practitioners' well-being within the broader social and political context of GBV work.

关于性别暴力幸存者工作的研究主要集中在其情感负担和对从业者福祉的影响上。本研究探讨了从事性别暴力服务的专业人员如何体验和理解他们的工作，利用反身性主题分析分析了23个访谈。参与者的描述揭示了与性别暴力和性别歧视在社会中持续存在以及工作不稳定相关的挑战，但也强调了他们将自己的工作视为支持妇女和促进社会变革的政治承诺的意义。研究结果强调了在性别暴力工作的更广泛的社会和政治背景下理解从业人员福祉的重要性。
