The Inter-Agency Minimum Standards for Gender-based Violence in Emergencies Programming: Monitoring and Evaluation Framework 2023
11 Jul, 2023
The main GBV Minimum Standards document provides details on the 16 Standards, key actions that should be taken to achieve each standard, the minimum indicators needed to measure each standard, guidance notes with further information and tools and resources to support the fulfilment of each standard. This document acts as a complement to the main Minimum Standards guidance and explores potential avenues to monitor and evaluate the achievement of each standard. It is a compilation of current best practices and measurement tools that are available for humanitarian agencies and clusters to employ as they seek to rollout and measure their progress against each standard. Using the definitions and tools included in this document, actors and agencies implementing GBV-specialized programming1 will be able to consistently measure core and recommended indicators related to the standards.

The guide emphasizes the importance of a collaborative and participatory process for developing the procedures and agreements contained in a SOP document.
Gender-Based Violence and Child Protection Field Cooperation Framework is Out!
06 Jan, 2022
Recognising the interconnected needs of child and adolescent survivors, it is evident that Gender-Based Violence (GBV) and Child Protection actors have overlapping responsibilities in regard to response, mitigation, prevention and preparedness. Actors must cooperate to generate better knowledge, develop skills and expand resources. Both GBV and Child Protection minimum standards reiterate the need for intersectoral cooperation. Increasingly complex emergencies require the collaboration between different disciplines to understand and address new and growing needs affecting girls and boys.1 Changes in the humanitarian landscape means that GBV and Child Protection response, mitigation and prevention will be led and implemented by diversified, local actors. Local actors need support to take on leadership roles in leading and coordinating response. Local women and youth organisations are instrumental for the practical response to the needs of child and adolescent survivors. The role of GBV ...
Inter-Agency Minimum Standards for Prevention and Response to GBV in Emergencies - GBV AoR 2019
12 Jul, 2019
This resource presents 16 Minimum Standards for GBV prevention and response programming in emergencies. As a whole, the 16 Minimum Standards define what agencies working on specialized GBV programming need to achieve to prevent and respond to GBV, and deliver multisectoral services. The objective of the Minimum Standards is to establish a common understanding of what constitutes minimum GBV prevention and response programming in emergencies. “Minimum” means “of adequate quality”; for the purposes of this resource, adequate quality means (1) reflecting good practice and (2) not causing harm. As such, each Standard in this resource represents common agreement on what needs to be achieved for that specific programmatic element to be of adequate quality. When a GBV programme actor decides to implement a programmatic element outlined in the Standards, that intervention must be implemented according to the Standard at a minimum.
