Flagship report – What works to prevent violence against women & Girls
Violence against women and girls (VAWG) is preventable. Over the last two decades, VAWG prevention practitioners and researchers have been developing and testing interventions to stop violence from occurring, in addition to mitigating its consequences. This in-depth review presents what is now known in the field six years on and captures the contribution that What Works has made to this wider evidence base. It highlights the repertoire of interventions that are effective where interventions are well designed and executed.
These interventions can be carefully adapted and tested in new contexts, before being taken to scale. It also identities major gaps in evaluations of interventions for the most marginalised groups of women and girls, who experience disproportionately high rates of violence, such as adolescent girls, conflict-affected populations, women and girls living with disabilities, and lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer or questioning and intersex plus (LGBTQI+) persons.
