Yet, little is known about how parents, as key figures in adolescents\u2019 social environments, understand these risks. This study explored parental perspectives on adolescent GBV in Colombia.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Between February to April 2024, we conducted 28 semi-structured interviews with parents of adolescents aged 10\u201319 in the metropolitan area of Medell\u00edn, Colombia. Interviews were transcribed verbatim and analyzed using reflexive thematic analysis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Twenty-eight parents participated; most were women (79%), and collectively they were caregivers to 35 adolescents with a median age of 14. Parents consistently described GBV as an urgent and pervasive threat to adolescent well-being, particularly in relation to sexual abuse, dating violence, and the normalization of harm. Machismo emerged as a central cultural and structural determinant shaping gender norms and adolescents\u2019 vulnerability. Family-level dynamics \u2013 including silence, fear, and modeled behaviors \u2013 were perceived as contributing to cycles of violence. Parents also emphasized prevention through early child education on abuse, active communication with adolescents, and clear guidance on boundaries and respectful relationship practices.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Parents\u2019 perspectives highlight the need for culturally grounded, caregiver-centered public health interventions to address GBV among adolescents in Colombia.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/15404153261476686","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,31]],"date-time":"2026-08-31T03:13:01Z","timestamp":1788145981000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Parent Perspectives on Adolescent Gender-Based Violence as a Public Health Issue in Medell\u00edn, Colombia: A Qualitative Study"],"prefix":"10.1177","author":[{"given":"David","family":"Sanchez Villa","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Toronto"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mariangela","family":"Castro-Arteaga","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Toronto"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Luis Fernando","family":"Alonso Mendoza","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Escuela de Medicina y Ciencias de la Salud, Universidad Tecnol\u00f3gico de Monterrey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Claudia Patricia","family":"P\u00e9rez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Educacia y Psicolog\u00eda"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Amaya","family":"Perez-Brumer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Toronto"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5106-3122","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Julien","family":"Brisson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Toronto"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bmjgh-2020-004436"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/2159676X.2019.1628806"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Brisson J.
