Abstract
The objective of this assessment is
to provide background information about GBV issues,
policies, programming, and gaps in Malawi, for the purpose
of assisting the World Bank (WB) to 1) consider how to
directly support efforts to address GBV in Malawi; 2) inform
strategies for integrating attention to GBV in development
programming; and 3) understand the extent of GBV response
programming. In addition to providing an overview of data on
the scope of GBV in Malawi, the assessment investigates:
legislative and policy protections related to GBV; systems
and coordination mechanisms in place for addressing GBV in
Malawi; and GBV response and prevention programming. The
assessment analyzes key gaps across these areas of
investigation based on inputs from key stakeholders as well
as the desk review and concludes with several
recommendations for WB to consider assisting in addressing
these key gaps.
