This resource provides an overview of the Stopping Abuse and Female Exploitation Programme in Zimbabwe.
SDDirect is a prominent global leader in gender-based violence (GBV) programming, policy, and research, anchored in feminist principles. We partner with diverse groups and stakeholders, offering technical support, training, and accompaniment throughout programme and investment lifecycles.
We recognise the importance of integrating gender-based violence prevention and response across other aspects of our work as an accelerator for achieving gender equality.
1/3 women and girls endure physical or sexual violence, with heightened risk for those facing discrimination based on factors like poverty, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, and HIV status.
Violence against women and girls is a significant human rights and public health issue rooted in power imbalances. Its costs, both social and economic, are immense, lasting generations.
Prevention is possible through an intersectional, evidence-based, and practice-oriented approach addressing the underlying causes.
Prevention and response: Holistic programming to end VAWG in various settings with an emphasis on primary prevention accompanied by response.
GBV in emergencies: GBV prevention and response in humanitarian programming with a focus on policy, guidance, capacity strengthening and research and evaluation.
School related GBV: Prevention and response in education spaces, with a focus on gendered and intersectional analysis.
Violence against LGBTQI+ communities: Prevention and response with a focus on intersectional analysis, research and evaluation.
Technology facilitated GBV: Prevention and response with a focus on policy, guidance, capacity strengthening and research and evaluation.
We envision a world free from all forms of gender-based violence, where all women, girls and gender diverse people can realise their rights and exercise choice and agency.
Helpdesk services; programme leadership; technical assistance, accompaniment and training; knowledge products and guidance material; policy and programme guidance; specialist research, monitoring and evaluation on GBV.
We take a feminist intersectional approach to our work on GBV, recognising how gender inequality intersects with other systems of oppression, discrimination and structural inequalities, including (but not limited to) those related to race, ethnicity, class, cast, homo and transphobia, ableism, ageism, nationality, immigration status, refugee and asylum seeker status, and health status.

This learning brief provides an initial introduction to Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its links to Gender-Based Violence (GBV). It begins with an overview of key terms associated with AI relevant to GBV actors and summarizes current learning around how AI can exacerbate GBV in humanitarian settings. It then considers the ways in which AI may be used to address GBV, as well as the risks associated with the use of AI in GBV prevention and response.
تعد حملات التوعية مهمة لأنها تساهم في زيادة الوعي بالعنف القائم على النوع الاجتماعي باعتباره انتهاكاً لحقوق الإنسان الذي يؤثر على المجتمع ككل (هيئة الأمم المتحدة للمرأة، 2021 3). فعلى مر السنين، ساعدت حملات التوعية في حشد الدعم والتأثير على التغيير في الأطر التشريعية والسياسات الدولية والوطنية، فضلاً عن الحفاظ على برامج منع العنف القائم على النوع الاجتماعي والاستجابة له لدعم الناجيات.

L'engagement des garçons (jusqu'à l'âge de 18 ans) est un domaine essentiel mais sous-exploré de la prévention de la violence basée sur le genre (VBG) dans les situations d'urgence.
La participación de niños (hasta los 18 años) es una misión fundamental, aunque poco explorada, de la prevención de la violencia basada en el género en contextos de emergencia. Esta bibliografía comentada ofrece una descripción general de literatura relevante, evaluaciones y ejemplos programáticos para motivar a los niños en los programas de prevención de la violencia basada en el género, centrándose en entornos de ingresos altos y medios y, en la medida en que existan documentos, en contextos humanitarios.
This evidence synthesis looks at the forms, drivers and consequences of VAWG in Zimbabwe, key intervention models for tackling VAWG in Zimbabwe and the strength of the evidence of effectiveness.
This formative research report is useful to understand prevalent gendered social norms in Zimbabwe, the particular experiences of the most at risk women and girls, and the nature of formative research to inform programme design on VAWG prevention. To inform the SAFE programme design, formative research looked at three questions:
