Addressing GBV through Environment and Natural Resource Management Programs

Description

This document describes why USAID's environment and natural resource management (NRM) programs should address gender-based violence (GBV). It provides examples, strategies, tools, and resources on several major topics including the exploitation of gendered division of labor, the reinforcement of inequitable land and tenure rights, and extortion in exchange for resources. The document is part of the Foundational Elements for Gender-Based Violence Programming in Development and USAID’s Collective Action to Reduce Gender-Based Violence (CARE-GBV).
