| description | Background The community-based participatory approach (CBPA) has gained increasing recognition worldwide for enhancing the effectiveness of intervention. It is relatively new in Chinese societies and participants’ perceptions are underexplored. This study aims to explore abused Chinese women’s perceptions on the CBPA programme in addressing their needs. Methods A total of 11 abused Chinese women were recruited for a focus group and individual interviews. A semi-structured interview guide was used. All interviews were audio-recorded and data were transcribed verbatim. Conventional content analysis was used for analysis. Results Four themes were identified regarding the women’s perceptions and experiences of the community-based participatory approach programme: (1) Women’s perceived acceptability of the CBPA programme; (2) Women’s perceived usefulness of the CBPA programme; (3) Women’s perceived feasibility of the CBPA programme; and (4) Empowering the women through participating in CBPA. Conclusions Abused Chinese women had high perceived acceptance and positive experiences towards the community-based participatory approach. Women benefited from their robust participation throughout the process. The findings confirm the potential of using the community-based participatory approach in designing interventions for future programme planning and intervention to address the needs of abused Chinese women. |
