Abstract

Men are increasingly recognised as victims of sexual violence in conflict-affected areas. But western policy interventions in Africa, and the local programmes they influence, frequently exclude African social realities. New research in north-eastern Nigeria examines the role of spirituality in the victim-perpetrator relationship, highlighting the importance of non-western theories to produce effective policy responses.
