This manual promotes an integrated approach to combat genderbased violence with governments, nongovernmental organisations, private sector and international organisations working together. It addresses the problems inherent in the current strategies, especially lack of collaboration between the different agencies and individuals working in the area of genderbased violence. The manual encourages development and implementation of comprehensive and coherent policies, programmes and national plans of action on genderbased violence. It provides easytoread instructional materials and case studies for training managers, middlelevel professionals, development workers and extension agents. A doityourself manual, the book is based on the Commonwealth Secretariat model framework for an integrated approach to combat violence against women. The manual: draws on the strengths of the Gender Management System; promotes an integrated approach to combat GBV; draws on experiences from workshops and consultations facilitated by the Commonwealth Secretariat in Botswana, Kenya, Lesotho, Malawi, Mauritius, Mozambique, Namibia, Swaziland, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe; and is a flexible tool that can be adapted to suit national and local situations.
