Prevention of violence against women and girls in Southern Africa
The Prevention of Violence against Women and Girls (VAWG) in Southern Africa Programme funded by GIZ supported the formation of multi-stakeholder initiatives that leveraged financial and technical contributions from governments, civil society organizations, private sector companies, the media, and academia. The prevention of violence against women and girls in Southern Africa was strengthened through cooperation between governmental, non-government and private sector actors. Capacity development helped better coordinate and implement prevention approaches, including flagships projects with specific preventative action. Accompanying research fostered the evidence base related to the prevention of VAWG. Regional exchange across the Southern African region promoted organizational learning.
