This tool was originally developed by IUCN through AGENT for a set of fisheries project partners in Southeast Asia at their request, following the results of a gender analysis process, to better understand and prioritize resources and action to tackle gender-based violence (GBV). Now modified and anonymized for broader awareness-raising and potential project guidance, this tool provides an array of specific interventions that environment programs, donors and practitioners could consider to strengthen attention to addressing GBV across environment-related contexts. As these interventions were originally identified for a specific project, any inspiration drawn or applications of this tool should ensure appropriate modification to respective contexts.
