This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases โ it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing a new family-based program called MILAP that aims to help young married women in Nepal who are experiencing depression and intimate partner violence. Instead of asking women to leave their relationships, the program works with their husbands and mothers-in-law to create a safer, more supportive family environment. The study will compare this new approach to standard care and counseling services already available.
Many young women in Nepal experience both intimate partner violence and depression, but they may not be able or willing to leave their relationships due to cultural and economic factors. Current treatments like counseling work best for women who have already left their partners, leaving a major gap in care for women who want to stay but need their family situation to improve.
