World Bank | Violence Against Women and Girls Resource Guide: Land Sector Brief

Read the full brief here.

A recently published report by the World Bank highlights the intersections between land programs/projects and violence against women and girls. It provides recommendations for policy, as well as institutional and community level interventions that may address violence against women and girls.

“The purpose of this Brief is to highlight entry points that offer actionable guidance to development practitioners on how to integrate prevention of and response to violence against women and girls (VAWG) into land programming. The following pages contain guidance on ethics and safety, resources for carrying out a rapid situation analysis, specific actionable ideas for implementation at the policy, institutional/sectoral and community level, detailed examples of promising practices, a menu of indicators for use in M&E, and dozens of active links to more detailed resources and toolkits. This brief complements the World Bank/IFAD’s Toolkit for Integrating Gender-Related Issues in Land Policy and Administration Projects.” (p2.)
