The aim of the study was to understand structural and socio-political barriers faced by social workers to providing services to Arab-Palestinian young women abused in childhood, considering their multiple marginalisation. The literature has addressed the structural barriers in terms of the written policy and the social services provided to the Arab-Palestinian minority. However, little is known about how these barriers affect the provision of services to Arab-Palestinian young women abused in childhood from the perspective of service providers. To address this gap, twenty-one social workers were interviewed in depth. The findings revealed two main themes: (i) structural discrimination and the socio-political context of Arab Palestinians in Israel; (ii) challenges and structural barriers at the level of social policy. Our findings shed light on the oppressive othering of Arab-Palestinian young women, who feel invisible vis- à-vis governmental organisations. Thus, social workers working in the field should examine the needs of the young women and work in collaboration with senior government officials to promote culture- and gender-adapted programmes.

向阿拉伯裔巴勒斯坦年轻妇女提供服务的结构性和社会政治障碍：社会工作者的观点

该研究的目的是了解社会工作者在向童年受虐待的阿拉伯-巴勒斯坦年轻妇女提供服务时面临的结构性和社会政治障碍，考虑到她们的多重边缘化。文献解决了向阿拉伯-巴勒斯坦少数民族提供的书面政策和社会服务方面的结构性障碍。然而，从服务提供者的角度来看，人们对这些障碍如何影响向童年受虐待的阿拉伯-巴勒斯坦年轻妇女提供服务知之甚少。为了解决这一差距，我们对二十一名社会工作者进行了深入访谈。调查结果揭示了两个主题：(i) 以色列境内阿拉伯巴勒斯坦人的结构性歧视和社会政治背景；(ii) 社会政策层面的挑战和结构性障碍。我们的研究结果揭示了阿拉伯裔巴勒斯坦年轻女性所遭受的压迫性他人，她们在政府组织面前感到被忽视。因此，在该领域工作的社会工作者应研究年轻女性的需求，并与政府高级官员合作，推动适应文化和性别的计划。
