La ricerca, finanziata da Il Sole Onlus, ha valutato l’efficacia di un intervento di supporto psicopedagogico, counselling e recupero sociale per bambine etiopi vittime di violenza sessuale. In Etiopia i bambini vittime di violenze riportano scarso supporto sociale, bassa autostima e pensieri intrusivi. 19 bambine (età media 9.7 anni), vittime di violenza sessuale, hanno partecipato all’intervento. Si è valutato nelle bambine all’inizio e 12 mesi dopo l’intervento il PTSD, il rischio depressivo, i problemi comportamentali e i comportamenti sessualizzati. Dopo un anno di intervento si è verificata la diminuzione di: rabbia, sintomi post-traumatici, problemi internalizzanti ed esternalizzanti, depressione, problemi sociali, di attenzione e pensiero, e comportamento aggressivo. La riduzione di tali problematiche indicano l’efficacia dell’intervento.
