Boosting Parent Support to End Child Violence in Tanzania: Insights from the Ground

In Tanzania, changing how parents behave can reduce violence against children. This study looked at what policymakers and service providers think about giving parents support to stop violence. It used Daly's framework to find out what helps and hinders this kind of support. Parents can learn to discipline without violence. Programs can make this happen. But what do the people making rules and giving services think about this?

They think it's important, but there are challenges. Like getting enough money and training for staff. The support from the government and community can make a big difference. Daly's framework helps understand these factors. It looks at the policies, resources, and attitudes that matter. This can help scale up support for parents. It's not just about the programs. It's also about the people who run them. Their skills and the support they get are crucial. So, what's next? More research and talk with policymakers and providers can help. This can lead to better plans and more support for parents.
