ABSTRACT
Background: - Sexual violence is a series problem that transcends racial, economical social and
regional lines and is frequently towards female student and youth who lack the economic and
social status to resist or avoid it. So knowledge of the magnitude and factors associated with
sexual violence at school is very important in proposing prevent measures.
Objective: - To determine the prevalence and consequence of sexual violence among female
students of Jiren secondary school.
Methodology: - The study was conducted at Jiren secondary school in Jimma town, Oromiya
region. A cross sectional study was conduct to determine the prevalence and consequence of
sexual violence among Jiren secondary school female students. A total 336 students were
selected randomly after using stratified sampling technique. To ensure the validity and reliability
of data collection pretest was done on the Jimma preparatory school by 5%; based on the finding
of pre test the necessary correction was made. The collected data was checked for completeness,
consistency and accuracy before analysis. It was processed and analysed by using descriptive
statistics percentage, frequency, ratios, and the result was calculated by using scientific
calculator and tally sheet manually during the analysis. The finding was presented by using
figure, pie chart and table.
Result:- A total of 322 female students were involved in the study. The prevalence of sexual
violence in Jiren secondary school was 213 (66.2%). The prevalence of completed and attempted
rape was 8 (2.5%) and 17 (5.4%) respectively. The age range of survivors reported to have
complete rape was 10-14 years. Among 8 (2.5%) of females who had complete rape had
unwanted pregnancy 2 (25%) and Abortion 1 (12.5%).
Conclusion:- Sexual violence is a public health problem among female students in the study
area. Physical, psychological and social effects of sexual violence were common. Thus,
programs should aim to solve the problem among female students involving the men/boys in
interventions since most of the perpetrators were males.

CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND
Violence against women/girls (VAW) is widespread and can take place in different
circumstances, forms and settings. It is a profound health problem that saps women’s energy,
compromises their physical and mental health, and erodes their self-esteem. There is increasing
international consensus that the abuse of women and girls, regardless of where it occurs, should
be considered as “violence against women,” as it largely stems from women’s subordinate status
in society with regard to men.[1]
World Health Organization defines sexual violence as any sexual act, attempt to obtain a sexual
act, unwanted sexual comments or advances, or acts to traffic, or otherwise directed, against a
person’s sexuality using coercion, by any person regardless of their relationship to the victim, in
any setting, including but not limited to home and work. [1]
Sexual violence is one form of violence against women which is endemic in communities around
the world, cutting across class, race, age, religion and national boundaries. In many cases, it
begins in childhood or adolescence. Exposure to sexual coercion significantly increases girls’
and women’s chances of early sexual debut, experiencing forced sex, engaging in transactional
sex. [2]
A wide range of sexually violent acts can take place in different circumstances and settings.
These include, for example: rape within marriage or dating relationships; rape by strangers;
systematic rape during armed conflict; unwanted sexual advances or sexual harassment,
including demanding sex in return for favours; sexual abuse of mentally or physically disabled
people; sexual abuse of children; forced marriage or cohabitation, including the marriage of
children; denial of the right to use contraception or to adopt other measures to protect against
sexually transmitted diseases; forced abortion; violent acts against the sexual integrity of
women, including female genital mutilation and obligatory inspections for virginity; forced
prostitution and trafficking of people for the purpose of sexual exploitation.[2]

1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
Sexual violence (SV) is one of the most frequent forms of gender violence in which a person’s
sexual freedom is violated. It is a major public health problem affecting millions of girls and
young women across the world. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) estimates,
1 in 3 women aged 15-45 years worldwide experienced some form of sexual violence in their life
time. More specifically, more than 150 million young girls experienced some form of sexual
violence below 18 years of age. Based on the World Health Organization’s report, the rate of
violence against women is as following, Eastern Mediterranean countries (37%), and African
countries (36.3%) American countries (29.8%), European countries (25.4%), Western Pacific
(24.6%) and other countries with high salaries (23.2%). Despite the global epidemic, the
prevalence of sexual violence against women is alarmingly high in developing countries,
particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. Approximately, one in 10 adolescents worldwide reported
experiencing sexual violence [1, 3].
Sexual violence against adolescents occurs in different circumstances, forms, and settings.
Adolescent schoolgirls are at risk of different forms of sexual violence by different perpetrators.
Male teachers, school administrators, and students are common perpetrators of sexual violence
against schoolgirls. They also experienced sexual violence at home or on the journey to and from
school. Sexual violence has been found to have devastating effects on victims’ health: physical,
reproductive, psychological, and well-being. Studies revealed that sexual violence against school
girl has negative effects on the girls’ educational attainment [4, 5].
Moreover, sexual violence against young girls also has a negative impact on the country’s human
and economic development. Recently, the issue of sexual violence against schoolgirls has
garnered global attention with implications for health and education outcomes. With sexual
violence becoming widespread in schools, the government of Ethiopia has enacted various
policies and codes of conduct aimed at the prevention and control of school-related sexual
violence. In addition, the government of Ethiopia included ending violence against women in
higher education as a priority concern in the second growth and transformation plan. [5, 6].
Taking into account the prior scenario and given that sexual violence has received insufficient
attention from researchers, policy-makers and programme designers, and it has been a long
struggle to have it recognized as a legitimate public health issue. Sexual violence has been
widely reported, the nature and health consequences are not well understood and documented.
Whereas there are some studies conducted on sexual violence there is limited information on the
health consequences, responses and prevention strategies. As such, this study is aimed at
determining the lifetime prevalence of sexual violence and consequence among secondary school
female students of jiren, Jimma, Oromia region, south west Ethiopia. The findings of this study
may have a vital role in influencing policymakers and different stakeholders working on sexual
violence prevention in the study area.

CHAPTER TWO
Research done among Female Secondary School Students in Jos, North Central Nigeria revealed
that the prevalence of sexual abuse was found to be (26.5%) among the female students. The
offenders were mostly known to the victims (63.8%), most of which were friends (41.2%) and
neighbors (37.3%), others were cousins, uncles and brother (21.5%).Only 27(33.8%) of the
victims reported the case to someone while (66.2%) did not report to anyone. Factors that were
found to be significantly associated with sexual abuse included age, hawking, alcohol
consumption, and not living with parents. [7]
The study done at Mizan female students revealed that the prevalence of sexual violence is
41.6% in Aman high school female students from these, 5.1% were attempted rape and 9% were
completed rape. The prevalence of sexual harassment(36.4%) which is unwelcome touch on
sensitivity body part (5.1%), unwelcome kiss (0.9), unwelcome remark (9.8%), fondling(3.8%),
kidnapping(1.3%). Based on this finding the prevalence of sexual violence among female high
school students is high. Therefore, the school administrative should prepare awareness creation
programs through establishing clubs (gender club) that target against sexual violence. [8]
A study conducted on female students of Ambo University showed that more than one fourth of
those who responded had previous sexual intercourse. The result showed that 76.4% and 43.7%
have reported to have at least one incidents of sexual violence in their lifetime and past 12
months, respectively. Rural origin of residence having literate father were at decreased likelihood
to experience lifetime sexual violence. Yet, alcoholic consumption, current parental living
condition, childhood witnesses of maternal violence and as well as with having had more than
one sexual partners were factors associated with an increased likelihood of lifetime sexual
violence. [9]
The study done on female students of preparatory schools in Modjo and Bishoftu towns showed
a prevalence of 74% of sexual violence in the study area. In the final model, age group of 17 - 18
teacher perpetrator and knowledge of ever encountered a person with sexual violence was found
significant. A significant proportion (74%) of respondent’s experienced sexual violence.
4
Unwelcome touching and ever had sexual intercourse without their consents were the most
common types of sexual violence in the study area. [10]
Research done in Hawassa on a total of 336 female students took part in the study. Majority of
the study participants (N = 298; 88.7%) were in the age range of 20–34 years. The mean age and
standard deviation of the respondents were 21.3 ± 1.7 years. Regarding the marital status of the
respondents, 307 (91.4%) of them were single. We found that, while 14.3% reported having
experienced completed rape since being admitted to the university, 3% had the experience in the
past years. [11]
A study conducted among female high school students in Harar town indicated that Sexual
violence among in school adolescents were 25%. Students used addictive drugs like alcohol
(18%), chat and shish (7.2%) as very important contributing factors for sexual violence’s. Use of
physical force (15%), false promise (43%) and use of power (7.2%) reported contributing
factors. Females dressing style, their act, peer pressure, revenge and males emotionality
identified as contributing factors for sexual violence. Sexual violence had different consequences
like abortion (32.2%), vaginal discharge (28.6%), genital trauma (25%), and unwanted
pregnancy (14.2%). [12]
Research done on among high school female students in Jarso District, Oromia Region showed
that the magnitude of sexual violence among female students was 28.6% in the study area. Forty
(7.2%) participants have experienced coercive sex against their consent. Participant’s level of
education, being unmarried, consumption of alcohol, using substances (hashish and/or shisha,
and ever initiated sexual intercourse were positively and statistically associated with sexual
violence. [13]

2.2 SIGNIFICANCY OF THE STUDY
The result of this study will be help female students by empowering girls and women, changing
social norms, and creating protective environments can help reduce SV.
This study generates health information important for planning and for public health policy
interventions, especially in designing effective intervention strategies for preventing SV and its
health consequences. Also, by describing the health consequences, responses and prevention
strategies of SV`, the study contributes to national efforts in research for information based
decision making.
This study is significant to individuals and groups in local, regional and international
interventions on health consequences and prevention strategies of sexual based violence. It will
be of significant to sexual violence survivors, community health workers, human rights
advocates, legislators, law enforcers, opinion leaders and all other stake holders in dealing with
sexual violence and health issues associated with it. Other researchers who will be interested to
conduct further study on similar study subjects may also use as a base line data and information.
First, it promotes continued empathy and support for survivors. Second, the knowledge may help
diverse groups of service providers respond to current trends toward professionalization of the
field of sexual violence. This study sheds light on an issue which rarely receives attention. The
findings will be very useful for everyone who is involved in the management and prevention of
sexual violence.

CHAPTER SIX
DISCUSSION
In this study the prevalence of sexual violence and different effects of sexual violence were
identified. The study showed that sexual violence is a public health problem among female high
school students in the study area.
The life time prevalence of sexual violence among female Jiren high school students was 66.2%.
This finding is comparable with a study done in Madawalabu in which the prevalence was
65.95% [16]. This finding is in line with a study done in Mizan Tepi University in which the
magnitude of sexual violence was 66.3% [17]. However, the finding is lower when compared
with a study done in Southern Ethiopia, Ambo, and Modjo 78.2%, 76.4%, 74.2% and %
respectively [15,9,10]. This difference could be because of difference in living conditions,
cultures and values given to females in different ethnic groups or societies. However, it is higher
than the study done in Nigeria in which the prevalence of sexual violence was 26.5% [9]. This
difference may be attributed to variation between the two countries due to differences in socio-
economic, cultural, and behavioral/lifestyle factors.
The mean age at first sexual intercourse was 16.8 years. This finding is similar with study done
in Harar which was 16 years [12]. On this study 58(24.8%) of the study subjects initiated sexual
intercourse and of this 5(8.6%) were forced. The magnitude of forced sex as early sexual debut
in this study is lower when compared with a study done in Hawassa in which forced sex as early
sexual debut was 18% [11].
The magnitude of completed rape was 2.5%. This finding was higher than a finding obtained in
Butajira high school female students where prevalence of forced sexual intercourse was 1.2%
[14] .However, it was lower than a finding in lower when we compared with findings from
Ambo and Mizan which were 13.1% and 9.1% respectively, The same is true for attempted rape
where the magnitude was 11.5% in Mizan, and 10% in Ambo [8,9]. This might be due to
increased awareness on attempted/performed rape.
Of the total 115 sexual violence 70 (33%) were happened at victim’s own home. This finding is
nearly consistent with a study done in Butajira which was 30% [14]. Most of the perpetrators
20
were school mate 32% , boyfriend (30%). This finding is consistent with studies done in
Southern Ethiopia that showed greater number of female respondents were perpetrated by
someone they closely know and the most common perpetrators were found to be school mate and
their boy friend [15]. In this study, 11% of the perpetrators were unknown by the victims.
In this study only (5.6%) of attempted rape/completed rape cases applied to legal system (to the
police and the perpetrator imprisoned). This finding consistent with a study done in Butajira [14].
However, study done in Hawassa showed that 43.7% rape was reported. even though the
patients identified 90% of the perpetrators [11].
Outcomes of compeleted rape from this study showed that unwanted pregnancy, abortion,
psychological problem was 25%, 12.5% and 62.5% respectively. This finding is comparable with
a study done in Hawasa in which unwanted pregnancy, abortion, psychological problem 23.6%,
13% and 75% respectively [11]. But higher than studies conducted in Eastern Ethiopia which
implies that 18.5%, 6.1% and 21.4% respectively [18].
21
CHAPTER SEVEN
The magnitude of sexual violence may be underestimated for different reasons. One is because
the issue is so sensitive that respondents may not disclose the reality. The other reason is that
since only the survivors were participated in the study those who were absent due to the outcome
of sexual violence were not represented by the study. There may also be recall bias. Since it is
cross sectional study it is difficult to assess cause and effect relationship. It is also difficult to
know which come first, dependent or independent. For example, khat chewing may precede the
act of sexual violence or females may start chewing khat after they get violated.
22
CHAPTER EIGHT
CONCLUSION
This study revealed that sexual violence is a problem with all its negative effects among female
students in the study area. Different factors contributing for occurrence of sexual violence were
identified such as non-existence of boyfriend/husband, absence of family control and history of
conflicts with family. Physical, psychological and social effects of sexual violence were also
reported by the respondents specifying that most of the perpetrators were known by the victims
of sexual violence.
23
CHAPTER NINE
RECOMMENDATION
Findings of the study indicated that interventions should aim to reduce or prevent sexual violence
by focusing on all of the factors identified. Emphasis should be given on involving the men/boys
in interventions that aim in prevention of violence against female students since most of the
perpetrators were males. Moreover, working in collaboration with other social and political
stakeholders to tackle the violence against female students is also mandatory. Interventions at
school level also need to be done particularly making schools safe or violence free to empower
female students attain higher education. Awareness creation to female adolescents in schools on
how to protect themselves from sexual violence, it’s devastating effects and early reporting of
cases need due considerations. It is also recommended that attempts should be made to identify
factors associated with sexual violence for which this study didn’t address
