First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a short video encouraging safety actions helps pregnant women in Nepal who are experiencing domestic violence. Over 2,200 women between 12 and 20 weeks pregnant took part. Half watched a safety video, the other half watched a general healthy pregnancy video. Researchers then checked if women in the safety video group were more likely to tell someone about the violence.
