PROJ10079, What Works to Prevent Violence: Impact at Scale

1. The What Works to Prevent Violence - Impact at Scale Programme will build on the success of its predecessor ('What Works I' ) to prevent and contribute to eliminating violence against women and girls (VAWG) and violence against children (VAC) through: • Systematically designing, implementing and rigorously evaluating a range of approaches to scaling up violence prevention efforts, translating proof-of-concept evidence into robust, large-scale programmes; • Designing, piloting and testing new theory-driven violence prevention approaches (innovation); • Strengthening long-term capability and capacity to deliver cutting-edge violence prevention programmes across the programme's grantees and the UK Government (notably DFID and FCO); and • Using evidence to influence a more effective global response to end VAWG.
