This report examines how flooding, induced by climate change, disproportionately affects women and girls and increases their risk of experiencing GBV. The report has a particular focus on the Eastern and Southern Africa region. It identifies effective emergency preparedness and response strategies, particularly in the Eastern and Southern African region.  It provides information that is useful to humanitarians, as well as development actors, working in flood-prone contexts.

This report identifies international and regional events in Latin America and the Caribbean over the next two years where the UK FCDO can advocate for increased focus on disability rights in the region. Key details such as the event names, dates, locations, and thematic focuses, are presented. These opportunities are mapped against the key outcomes, intervention areas, and enablers for inclusion that are outlined in the FCDO's Disability Inclusion and Rights Strategy.

This briefing note explores the complexities of using digital tools to make and collect reports of GBV cases. It is written for anyone engaged in developing, working with, or overseeing digital platforms for GBV, including managers, decision-makers, technology developers, and GBV practitioners. The information included in the note is based on a desk review of GBV guidelines, digital development principles, existing digital reporting tools, and codes of conduct. 

This brief aims to help policymakers understand ‘what works’. It is based on a high-level synthesis of existing evidence and practice on conflict-related sexual violence (CRSV) and wider violence against women and girls (VAWG) in conflict affected settings, complemented by consultations with humanitarian stakeholders and survivors’ groups and networks.

This report incorporates findings from a scoping report by the Ending Violence against Women and Children Helpdesk on preventing conflict-related sexual violence

This brief presents some of the existing evidence on violence against LGBTQI+ people, and what has been tried to prevent this violence. 

This report provides an overview of the evidence globally of the everyday reality, as well as identifies emerging interventions and practice in preventing violence against LGBTQI+ people.

This report summarises the evidence exploring the prevalence of GBV against climate change activists and environmental human rights defenders (EHRDs), its impact on climate and environmental activism, and efforts to address GBV in this context.

Written primarily for non-GBV specialists—those who work in sectors of humanitarian response other than GBV—this briefing note begins with a review of what GBV risk mitigation entails and how GBV risk mitigation supports good humanitarian programming. It then looks at two thematic priorities within humanitarian response—accountability to affected populations (AAP) and localization — and explores how undertaking GBV risk mitigation can support these agendas.
