The purpose of the EVE Project (Evidence for Violence prevention in the Extreme) is to establish an evidence base for how to prevent violence against women and girls (VAWG) in the world's highest prevalence settings. This includes countries or regions where over 25% of women have experienced physical and/or sexual violence in the past year. The EVE Project takes a decolonial approach to establishing this research evidence by strengthening the capacity of local indigenous communities to develop their own understandings of VAWG and its prevention. In addition to an international work package comparing national VAWG drivers and protective factors, we are working with communities in Peru and Samoa to co-develop interventions that build on local approaches to conflict resolution and social change. This has contributed to several short-term impacts including: a series of collaborative research papers on high-prevalence settings for VAWG with 33 co-authors from 16 different international organisations published in leading journals (BMJ Global Health, Social Science & Medicine, BMC Public Health); a substantiated association between a country's colonial past and its current prevalence of VAWG (Brown et al 2022); a network of 50 community-based representatives trained in VAWG data collection and analysis; and a pilot study of a new approach to co-developing VAWG interventions in partnership with communities called Participatory Community-led Intervention Development (PCID) (Mannell et al 2021). As part of this extension, we will continue this important work by: (a) elaborating identified associations between colonialism and VAWG to inform current discussions on decolonising VAWG research and practice, (b) examining the potential for community-led child protection strategies to address the high risk of VAWG currently experienced in the Pacific region, and (c) developing inclusive measurement tools that consider the unique needs of groups within indigenous communities who experience some of the highest rates of VAWG, including young people, women living with disabilities, and individuals with marginalised gender identities. Our long-term aim is to ensure measurable impacts for the lives of women and girls living in high-prevalence settings through transforming how we research and develop interventions to prevent violence.

夏娃项目的目的（极端预防暴力的证据）是建立一个证据基础，以防止在世界上最高的患病率环境中预防暴力行为（VAWG）。这包括过去一年中超过25％的妇女经历过身体和/或性暴力的国家或地区。夏娃项目采用非殖民方法来建立这一研究证据，通过加强当地土著社区发展自己对VAWG及其预防的理解的能力。除了比较国家VAWG驱动因素和保护因素的国际工作计划外，我们还与秘鲁和萨摩亚的社区合作，以共同开发干预措施，这些干预措施以当地解决冲突和社会变革的方式为基础。这造成了几种短期影响，包括：一系列关于VAWG高尚环境的合作研究论文，与来自领先期刊上的16个不同国际组织的33名合着者（BMJ Global Health，社会科学与医学，BMC公共卫生）发表了16个不同的国际组织的合着者；一个国家的殖民过去与其目前的VAWG流行率之间的证实相关（Brown等，2022年）；由50个基于社区的代表组成的网络，接受了VAWG数据收集和分析的培训；以及针对与参与性社区主导的干预开发（PCID）共同开发VAWG干预措施的新方法的试点研究（Mannell等，2021）。 As part of this extension, we will continue this important work by: (a) elaborating identified associations between colonialism and VAWG to inform current discussions on decolonising VAWG research and practice, (b) examining the potential for community-led child protection strategies to address the high risk of VAWG currently experienced in the Pacific region, and (c) developing inclusive measurement tools that consider the unique needs of groups within indigenous communities who experience some of the highest rates of VAWG，包括年轻人，残疾妇女以及具有边缘性别认同的人。我们的长期目的是通过改变我们研究和制定预防暴力的干预措施，确保对生活在高产环境中的妇女和女孩的生活产生可衡量的影响。
