Ending Violence Against LGBTQI+ People: Global evidence and emerging insights into what works
This brief presents some of the existing evidence on violence against LGBTQI+ people, and what has been tried to prevent this violence.
Our global Gender-Based Violence (GBV) team provides strategic technical support to actors across the GBV ecosystem from donors to community-level women-led organisations. We are a multi-disciplinary team delivering programme design and implementation support, advocacy, research reports, MEL and helpdesk services.
Our team aspires to apply our feminist principles in all our work and to support sustained and transformative change. We partner with diverse stakeholders and we take an intersectional approach to our work on GBV prevention and response across development and humanitarian contexts.
Our work includes primary prevention programming, community-level response to GBV and SEAH, school-related GBV, GBV in Emergencies, Technology-Facilitated GBV, Violence against LGBTQI+ communities, and GBV in Climate and Economic programming.

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.
This briefing note is targeted to development actors working on GBV who increasingly may be facing humanitarian emergencies. When working on GBV, many of the interventions to mitigate it and support survivors, families and communities are the same in development and conflict settings. Nevertheless, there are important actions that development actors can undertake, even from the preparedness stage of an emergency, to support more effective GBV prevention and response after the emergency strikes.
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.
تقدم هذه المذكرة الإرشادية مقدمة عن الكيفية التي من المحتمل أن تزداد بها الكوارث نتيجة لتغير المناخ وتأثيرها على النساء، لا سيما من حيث زيادة تعرضهن للعنف القائم على النوع الاجتماعي. وتسلط الضوء على الدروس المستفادة من الكوارث في منطقة آسيا والمحيط الهادئ حول كيفية تحسين التأهب والاستجابة والتعافي من العنف القائم على النوع الاجتماعي.
Esta nota de orientación ofrece una introducción sobre cómo es probable que aumenten las catástrofes como consecuencia del cambio climático y el efecto desproporcionado que tienen sobre las mujeres, especialmente en términos de aumento de su vulnerabilidad a la violencia de género. Destaca las lecciones extraídas de los desastres ocurridos en la región de Asia y el Pacífico sobre cómo mejorar la preparación, la respuesta y la recuperación ante la violencia de género.
Cette note d'orientation présente la manière dont les catastrophes sont susceptibles d'augmenter en raison du changement climatique et l'effet disproportionné qu'elles ont sur les femmes, en particulier en termes d'augmentation de leur vulnérabilité à la violence liée au genre. Elle met en lumière les enseignements tirés des catastrophes survenues dans la région Asie-Pacifique sur la manière d'améliorer la préparation, la réponse et le
This tip sheet, which updates and provides a summary of a longer report on GBV and anticipatory action, is meant to serve as a primer on anticipatory action for GBV actors and those supporting GBV risk mitigation interventions. The research query on GBV and anticipatory action remains an important reference for more detailed information and includes case studies, see Jay, H. (2021).
تقدم هذه الورقة الإرشادية لمحة عامة عن النهج الذي يركز على الناجيات ولماذا وكيف ينبغي استخدامه في جميع أنواع ومراحل برمجة العنف القائم على النوع الاجتماعي في حالات الطوارئ.
