Camouflaged WeChat-based Intervention for Abused Women
Sponsor: The University of Hong Kong
Summary
Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a major public health issue and human rights threat worldwide, especially for Chinese immigrant women victims in Hong Kong. Interventions that address negative physical and emotional outcomes from IPV could therefore play a crucial role in enhancing empowerment, social support, and healthy lifestyle among these women. The overall objective of this pilot mixed methods study is to determine the feasibility and acceptability of a camouflaged WeChat mini-program-based WOMEN Health intervention for women victims of IPV. This study will evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of a camouflaged WeChat mini-program-based WOMEN Health intervention for women victims of IPV.
