Feb 2020 - Sep 2021 | UN Trust Fund

During the course of the Strategic Plan 2016-2020, the UN Trust Fund invested USD47 million in projects that solely or partly focused on preventing violence against women and girls.

To disseminate the expertise and knowledge of civil society and women's rights organizations, the UN Trust Fund worked with grantee organizations and researchers to create a series of briefings on preventing violence against women. The organizations' practice-based insights are invaluable to planning, designing and funding interventions aimed at ending violence against women and girls.

The main objectives of the knowledge products are to:

  • make the practice-based knowledge available to all those working to end violence against women and girls;
  • examine the unique contributions and levels of impact of civil society and women's organizations in preventing violence against women and girls, as well as the challenges faced and lessons learned;
  • guide the UN Trust Fund’s grant-making priorities; and
  • inform the work of the UN and other stakeholders on preventing and ending violence against women and girls.
  • The findings identified 10 key pathways to prevent violence against women and girls. Each theme will be explored in conversations with 10 grantees, resulting in a detailed report per theme published on a rolling basis in starting July 2021 and 2022.
