The data is in: We can help women live violence-free What we know: An estimated one in three women will experience physical or sexual violence in their lifetime. But high-quality studies have shown that community-based programs focused on prevention can be both impactful and cost-effective, with far-reaching benefits to families and entire communities. What we are doing: We have expanded our list of recommended nonprofits to include two organizations focused on preventing violence against women and girls. ·         The Center for Domestic Violence Prevention (CEDOVIP) is a Ugandan nonprofit that implements community-driven, cost-effective programming that discourages violence against women and girls and strengthens local prevention and response efforts. ·         Breakthrough Trust develops school curricula and mass-media campaigns designed to reach girls and boys between the ages of 11-25 and change deep-rooted cultural norms that perpetuate gender-based discrimination and violence. While the data underscores the measurable success of community-led programs in reducing violence against women and girls, it's also crucial to recognize the profound, enduring, and less tangible impact these initiatives can have on everyone involved. With your help, our recommended nonprofits can continue to cultivate communities where respect, equity, and understanding can flourish.
