Anita Raj on Gender-Based Violence in India
Dr. Anita Raj of the Center for Gender Equity and Health at the University of California, San Diego spoke to the IGWG about her ongoing research on gender-based violence in India.
The IGWG organizes regular in-person and virtual events where members from around the world can learn from and connect with each other. These events may be thematic, such as a focus on recent research in the GBV field, or dedicated to capacity strengthening, such as integrating participatory and inclusive evaluation and learning methods in gender transformative global health programming. Our annual IGWG Plenary creates space for members to meet in person and provide feedback on the network as a whole each year.
Presentations and recordings of IGWG events are available online so you can find past events you missed or want to revisit. The presentation materials are also available.
