Men and the Prevention of Gender-based Violence: A Conceptual Framework for Policy Change
This discussion paper was produced for Partners for Prevention.

Endorsement of these policy recommendations by leading UN agencies will deepen our collaboration with partners in government across the region to implement policy enhancements for effective violence prevention.

-
To propose a comprehensive framework for developing policies that respond to gender-based violence
To identify the importance of engaging and targeting men and boys as partners in developing and implementing policies on the prevention of gender-based violence
