Family Violence and COVID-19: The Pandemic Within the Pandemic

The project will investigate the short-, medium- and long-term effects that the Covid-19 pandemic and the measures taken to combat it had and continue to have on conflicts and violence in Swiss families.

Overview

This long-term study, realised within the NRP 80 "COVID-19 in Society", will firstly investigate how prevalence rates of family violence has changed since 2017 according to official statistics and surveys, and the trend it is likely to follow in the period up to 2025. Secondly, we will survey family members on the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic and containment measures have impacted family conflicts and violence. Here we want to find out how risk and protective factors interact at different levels (individual, relationship, community, society) and why some families experienced more violence during this period than others. Further, we are interested in identifying the circumstances under which the people affected can obtain support and do so, and when this is not the case. The aim of the project is to make recommendations for violence prevention in times of crisis such as the COVID-19 pandemic.
