The treatment videos encouraged viewers to report VAW. Eight months later, surveys showed increased willingness to report in treatment villages as well as lower reported rates of VAW. The present survey experiment suggests a possible causal mechanism: the videos made allegations more credible so that those who come forward with reports are more confident that they will be believed. – Reproduced AEA Papers and Proceedings WOMEN - UGANDA AR 0 0 ddc 0 0 389557 IIPA IIPA 2021-01-29 110, May, 2020: p.615-619 AR123970 2021-01-29 AR
