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 borader 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.
