Preventing and Responding to Gender-based Violence in Faith-based Communities: An Annotated Bibliography of Recommended Resources - GBV AoR Helpdesk 2022
11 Jan, 2022
The annotated bibliography explores these and other approaches. However, only a small number of evaluated GBV programs are available. In addition, there is limited information available about how religious leaders and communities work with perpetrators of GBV, or about addressing GBV against marginalized women and girls, including violence against women and girls based on their sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression (SOGIE). Moreover, while many resources take an interfaith perspective, specific examples or details often focus on Christianity and Islam. Less information was found on other religions. This bibliography does not include resources exploring the role of faith in perpetrating and perpetuating GBV, although some of the resources do address this as well as describing prevention and response.

Digital tools are more accessible than ever, which has led to a surge of technological solutions aimed at improving access to and quality of services in humanitarian settings. One area where this trend is evident is the response to gender-based violence (GBV). Digital tools have emerged as a potential game-changer for survivor reporting; however, like any innovation, these tools carry both benefits and risks. There are value propositions to digitally reporting GBV, but the potential for retaliation, stigma and loss of survivors’ trust adds a layer of complexity that requires diligent consideration.
