SUPPORTIVE AND NURTURING PARENTING DURING CLIMATE STRESS PROGRAM IMPACT EVALUATION
REFNo: SS2645ES

The main goal of this research proposal is to provide rigorous evidence that will allow the team to respond the following research questions: 1. Is there a relation between caregiver-child interactions and reductions in violence against children? 2. Is there an association between caregivers’ mental health and emotional wellbeing and caregiver-child interactions? 3. Is there a correlation between caregiver behaviors and indirect improvements in children’s behaviors and development? 4. What potential mechanisms (e.g., household dynamics, parental self-efficacy, networks, economic deprivation) are associated with variations in caregiver-child interactions and children\'s development? 5. Are variations in caregiver-child interactions and children\'s development correlated with parents’ initial mental health status, parenting skills, and climate stress incidence?,
