Gender-based violence (GBV)

Purpose of Research
To inform policy and practice with evidence of established and emerging good practice in GBV survivor-led accountability initiatives across the prevention, mitigation and response trajectory .

Key Stakeholders
Policy makers and practitioners engaged in humanitarian, development and peace support work combatting GBV.

Research Question
What recommendations can be drawn from the evidence, or emerging evidence of survivor-led initiatives or practices that have or seek to, prevent, mitigate and respond to gender-based violence in humanitarian and development contexts and peace support?
Sub-questions:
• To what extent, in what circumstances, and for whom, were these initiatives, practices and approaches successful and what enabled their success?
• To what extent have these attempts to achieve accountability, been limited or blocked by formal and informal power holders?
• Whose voices influenced the programming and policy strategies - both as originally designed and as the journey progressed?

Methodology
Desk-based literature review of published and grey literature. This will include reports and papers published by women-led, women-centred and feminist networks and civil society organisations. Identification of grey literature from partner and partner networks will be sought from the ICGBV Learning and Practice Group, the Malawi ICGBV and the Sierra Leone ICGBV Working Group, though is not limited to these sources.

Scope
We wish to determine the evidence or emerging evidence of initiatives that deeply embedded GBV survivors as they sought accountability under each of the three dimensions, Prevention, Mitigation and Response across humanitarian, development and peace support work. This is not limited to the countries in which ICGBV members operate but should be determined by finding the best/emerging practice. Include a mix of initiatives from micro, meso and maco levels – from grassroots to district, to state and regional initiatives.

Deliverables
• Carry out relevant desk-based research, with an emphasis on grey literature, on Gender-based violence survivor-led accountability
• Produce a clear and compelling report with strong recommendations based on evidence of established and emerging good practice in GBV survivor-led initiatives across the prevention, mitigation and response trajectory, to inform policy and practice (15-20 pages) on GBV
o Two examples are sought under each of the pillars: Prevention, Mitigation and Response
o Elaboration on 3-6 best examples overall
o Produce recommendations under each of the three pillars and overall recommendations
• Maintain strong communications and collaboration with the ICGBV Secretariat throughout the process of developing, finalising and launching the paper.
