| The United States believes that preventing and responding to gender-based violence around the world is a matter of human rights, justice, equity, and equality. In 2012, the U.S. Congress first requested a â strategy to prevent and respond to violence against women and girls.â This strategy elevated the human rights of women and girls globally as a U.S. national security, diplomatic, and foreign assistance priority. The prevalence of gender-based violence remains high, justice and healing for survivors and accountability for perpetrators are often lacking, and the grassroots organizations working to prevent and respond to gender-based violence in their communities too often lack sufficient funding to do so. This book addresses the factors that increase the risks of gender-based violence and undermine access to services and safety. |
