GENDER-BASED VIOLENCE PERCEPTION AMONG YOUTH IN NORTHERN KOSOVO
GENDER-BASED VIOLENCE PERCEPTION AMONG YOUTH IN NORTHERN KOSOVO

Summary/Abstract: This paper presents the key findings of research conducted in October and November of 2019 among high school and university students from four municipalities in northern Kosovo (Leposavić, Zvečan, Zubin Potok, and Kosovska Mitrovica). Nine high schools and ten higher education institutions, with a total of 748 respondents, participated in the research. Given its intended focus, the research possesses both a contextual and exploratory character, with the perception of the prevalence and gender dimension of interpersonal violence at its core. The identification of quantitative characteristics of gender-based violence underscores the strength and significance of traditional, cultural, and historical influences related to gender socialisation and masculinity in family and partner relationships in northern Kosovo.
