Abstract
A case study of the Bududa District was used to analyze the effects of genderbased violence on children's welfare. The study's particular goals were to evaluate the association among bride price customs (early marriage) and welfare of children in Uganda's Budduda District. to determine a connection among the makeup of LC courts and the welfare of kids in Budduda District, Uganda, and to investigate the connection between cultural norms and young people's welfare in that region. A review of the available research on violence against women was done. In addition to a case investigation study design, both quantitative and qualitative approaches were also utilised. A sample size of 175 responders was chosen from a readily available sample of 320 components. The response rate of 71% was recorded. The results show that the vast majority of participants, as evidenced by 28% completely agreeing and 28% agreed scores, along with an average rating of 3.21 agreed upon concurred with answer the issue of whether assault of girls was believed to be normal in Bududa rural areas. Nevertheless, 31% disapproved and 13% strongly disapproved, indicating that girls were more likely to experience severe or physical manifestations of gender violence within conventional or cultural environments as a result of their inferiority. Fewer suggestions as well as findings were made. Women and girls who were beaten suffered psychological trauma, and men who beat their wives were rarely caught, according to girls and women who reported abuse in their homes.
