Enabling Women’s and Feminist Movements to End Violence Against Women and Girls: Experiences from Vanuatu

Publications - Released in 2022

As gains in women’s rights remain fragile, it is important to prioritize funding for essential services that include sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) prevention and response in COVID-19 fiscal stimulus packages and new strategies. The Vanuatu experience of close partnership with women’s rights organizations shows the importance of sustainable funding for civil society organizations to tackle SGBV. This paper will explore engagement methods, approaches, and concrete strategies of UNDP work in Vanuatu to effectively support women’s rights and feminist movements in ending violence against women and girls as key actors for sustainable, equal and participatory development.
