Violence Against Health Care Workers in Fragile Settings

The general objective of the project is to assess whether a violence de-escalating training for health professionals and of a publicly displayed Code of Conduct (a set of rules developed through a citizen science and co-design approach) for both health professionals and clients at the level of the health facility, can reduce the incidence and severity of episodes of violence, and to identify the most cost-effective way to implement these interventions in rural Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and in the mega city of Baghdad, Iraq.
