Tender Description
Youth perceptions on Women’s dress codes and Gender Based Violence in the MENA region
Assignment: Conducting a research on social norms and perceptions on women’s dressing codes and gender-based violence (GBV) in the MENA region.
Timeline: 20/February/2022 to 31/March/2022.
Location: Regional with a focus on Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon Occupied Palestinian Territories, and Tunisia.
Background
Harmful social norms sustain, normalize, justify and legitimize violence against women and girls (Butt et al, 2020; Stark & Seff, 2021). These norms are based on notions of women’s sexual purity, protecting family honor over women’s safety, women’s limited presence in the public sphere, and men’s authority to discipline and punish women (Perrin et al, 2019). One particular set of norms that sustain violence against women are those associated with women’s dress codes and practices. Sexual harassment and violence occur worldwide regardless of what the women wear. All types of sexual harassment and abuse including sexual abuse and rape, can be blamed on women who are judged as “deserving” of this harm because of what they wear or how they appear. The cliché question “What was she wearing during the incident?” is a globally known technique that blames violence survivors and assumes responsibility of women for provoking men.
