The articles in this special issue all result from the employment of empowerment evaluation with the intention of furthering the field of sexual violence prevention. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's goals were to build the science toward evidence-based programming and to build evaluation capacity among leaders in the sexual violence field. Other undefined benefits also resulted, including the facilitation of implementation of program improvements and the development of capacities that can be generalized across other aspects of the participants' work. These benefits are attributed to empowerment evaluation's intentional designation of evaluation activities to the same people responsible for program delivery. Empowerment evaluation's potential to make future contributions to the field of sexual violence prevention is discussed.

Violence has been analysed in silo due to difficulties in accessing data and concerns for the safety of those exposed. While there is some literature on violence and its associations using individual datasets, analyses using combined sources of data are very limited. Ideally data from the same individuals would enable linkage and a longitudinal understanding of experiences of violence and their (health) impacts and consequences.

Sexual assault nurse examiners are uniquely positioned to provide patient-centered postsexual violence health care but not all sexual assault nurse examiners receive culturally specific and identity-affirming training. Black/African American, Indigenous, and/or transgender people disproportionately experience sexual violence but may receive poorer health care after sexual violence compared with white cisgender people.

Background: Evidence shows that parenting behaviours, including the use of violent discipline, can be changed through programmatic interventions. This study seeks to examine how policymakers and service providers in Tanzania perceive the provision of parenting support as a strategy to prevent violence against children and what the enabling and hindering factors are for the scale-up of existing evidence-based parenting supports. It does this by applying Daly's analytical framework for parenting support.
