Summary

This study tests whether combining a community-mobilisation program (SASA! Together) with a women's economic empowerment program (Moyo Olemekeza) can reduce intimate partner violence in Malawi. About 1700 women aged 18-49 in food-insecure households will take part. The goal is to see if these programs, used together, lower physical, sexual, emotional, and economic violence from partners.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Community-mobilisation and economic empowerment programs (SASA! Together and Moyo Olemekeza)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that combining community action with women's economic support reduces intimate partner violence and improves earnings in Malawi.
What could go wrong
This is a large trial, but results may not apply to other settings. The programs require community buy-in and may not work everywhere. Violence reduction is hard to measure and sustain.
