Course Description | This seven-week course explores the socio-cultural and political factors that contribute to the existence of gender-based violence and which lead to an increased occurrence of acts of gender-based violence in complex emergencies, with an emphasis on conflict zones. Students will develop a practical understanding of effective interventions for preventing and responding to violence against women and girls in different phases of complex emergencies. Specifically, students learn the conceptual framework for preventing and responding to gender-based violence and the practical framework for developing gender-based violence programming. Furthermore, students review strategies for incorporating critical elements of gender-based violence programming: coordination among humanitarian agencies; evidence-based programming; and engaging communities in programming. |
