In this publication, significant findings of the earlier project study are outlined and 6 key interventions that organisations can undertake to address gender based violence (GVB) are identified. The 6 key interventions are:

- Institutionalise GBV responses at organisational level
- Support GBV programming – understand the context
- Make prevention and protection central to programming
- Improve service delivery: responding to GBV
- Engage with civil society
- Co-ordinate and collaborate with partners/other agencies.

Further, the publication highlights particular issues to be considered within each of the interventions and specific actions to be undertaken toward their achievement.
