What this trial studies

This project, SCALE, aims to compare different implementation strategies for delivering GlobalConsent, a web-based sexual violence prevention program, to men at six universities in Vietnam. The study will utilize a mixed-methods, comparative interrupted-time-series design to assess the effectiveness, fidelity, and cost-effectiveness of both lower-intensity and higher-intensity strategies. By engaging students, faculty, and university leaders, the research seeks to strengthen capacity and generate evidence to inform national leaders on effective strategies for addressing sexual violence. The study addresses a critical public health issue, particularly among young men, and aims to improve health outcomes related to sexual violence.
