AUTHOR: USAID
DATE: 2002
PUBLISHER: USAID
On May 1, 2002, over 130 program managers, policymakers, service providers,
and trainers participated in a day-long Technical Update, hosted by the USAID
Interagency Gender Working Group (IGWG) with the Center for Health and Gender
Equity (CHANGE). This summary of the Technical Update presents survey
information and recent data used to define gender-based violence (GBV) and its
negative impact on reproductive health outcomes. It also examines the role of
organizations that work on GBV and field-based projects that address GBV through
community mobilization and behavior change communication campaigns.
