This review sought to identify VAWG prevention and response actions beyond Sexual Exploitation and Abuse (SEA) and Sexual Harassment (SH), which are part of the risk mitigation strategy that is included in a project’s social risk assessment. In some cases, activities that will support mitigation of SEA/SH risks are also included. This report is divided into two sections. The first discusses the methodology that was followed for the LC2 portfolio review, and the second describes the sector and the VAWG prevention and response actions recommended for the priority projects selected.enCC BY-NC 3.0 IGOVIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN AND GIRLS (VAWG) PREVENTIONSOCIAL PROTECTIONWORLD BANK PROJECTSSOCIAL RISK MITIGATIONSpecific Operational Recommendations per Project to Address Violence Against Women and Girls in Central America Portfolio Prioritized ProjectsPublicationWorld Bank10.1596/40194
