 Najwa Adra, Nadje Al-Ali, Sana Farhat, Danièle Joly, Pénélope Larzillière, Nicola Pratt, Women, violence and exiting from violence with a gendered approach: MENA region and diaspora, FMSH-WP-2020-143, march 2020.  Download on Open Archives HalSHS This report presents a gendered approach to  understanding violence and ways of exiting violence. It emphasises the  importance of studying violence in the private and public spheres, as  well as gender-based violence wherever it may occur. These different  types of violence are linked by the thread of gender and can be analysed  under the concept of the 'continuum of violence'. A gendered approach  also emphasises the need to address social injustice and structural  inequalities all round: ending gender-based violence, guaranteeing  women's equal access to resources and addressing all forms of  inequalities, oppressions and exploitation. This report highlights  examples where women have been active in contributing to ending violence  and injustice, as social actors in their own right, in the region,  locally, nationally and internationally.&#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160;  &#160; &#160;The authorsNajwa Adra is a cultural anthropologist with over 30 years of academic field research and expe-rience in international development.

Le texte  Les auteures sont membres du groupe de travail « Femmes et violence, une  approche genrée : Afrique du Nord, Moyen Orient et diaspora » du Panel  International sur la Sortie de la Violence (IPEV) coordonné par la  Fondation Maison des sciences de l’homme (FMSH).  Résumé Ce rapport propose une perspective genrée pour  comprendre la violence et comment en sortir. Il souligne l’importance  d’une étude incluant à la fois la sphère privée et publique, ainsi que  la violence genrée où qu’elle se produise. Ces différents types de  violence sont liés à travers le prisme du genre et leur analyse fait  appel au concept de continuum de violence. Une approche genrée insiste  aussi sur la nécessité de répondre à l’injustice sociale et aux  inégalités structurelles en général : mettre fin à la violence genrée,  garantir un accès égal des femmes aux ressources et lutter contre toutes  les formes d’inégalité, d’oppression et d’exploitation. Ce rapport met  en lumière des exemples de femmes qui sont des actrices sociales de  plein droit et se sont activement engagées pour éliminer la violence et  l’injustice au niveau régional, local, national et international.&#160;Pour télécharger ce document sur HALSHS
