This event will present an overview of the What Works programme and progress to date; present the most important currently recognized drivers of violence against women and girls and the latest evidence on the prevalence, forms and patterns and drivers of VAWG in conflict and humanitarian settings, based on research conducted in South Sudan. In addition, What Works in-country partners will present interventions in action from research conducted in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Tajikistan, and Nepal.
