dc.description.abstractViolence against women and girls (VAWG) is one of the most oppressive forms of gender inequality and stands as a fundamental barrier to equal participation of women and men in social, economic, and political spheres. Such violence impedes gender equality and the achievement of a range of development outcomes. VAWG is a complex and multifaceted problem that cannot effectively be addressed from a single vantage point. The prevention of, and response to, such violence requires coordinated action across multiple sectors. This resource guide was developed through a partnership between the Global Women s Institute (GWI) at George Washington University, the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), and the World Bank Group (WBG). The primary audiences for the guide are IDB and WBG staff and member countries, as well as other development professionals who do not yet have experience addressing VAWG. The purpose of this guide is to provide the reader with basic information on the characteristics and consequences of VAWG, including the operational implications that VAWG can have in several priority sectors of the IDB and WBG. It also offers guidance on how to integrate VAWG prevention and provide quality services to violence survivors across a range of development projects. Lastly, it recommends strategies for integrating VAWG prevention and response into policies and legislation, as well as sector programs and projects.en
dc.description.abstractLa violencia contra las mujeres y las niñas (VCMN) es una de las formas más opresivas de la desigualdad de género y se erige como barrera fundamental a la participación igualitaria de las mujeres y los hombres en las esferas social, económica y política. Dicha violencia impide la igualdad de género y el logro de una variedad de resultados de desarrollo. Es un problema complejo y multifacético que no se puede abordar de forma efectiva desde un único puto de vista. La prevención y respuesta a la violencia exigen la acción coordinada de múltiples sectores. El objetivo de esta guía de recursos es proporcionar información básica sobre las características y consecuencias de la VCMN. También ofrece orientación sobre cómo integrar la prevención de la VCMN y la prestación de servicios de alta calidad a las sobrevivientes de violencia en una serie de proyectos de desarrollo. Por último, recomienda estrategias para incorporar la VCMN en políticas y leyes, así como en programas y proyectos sectoriales.es
