Narrative description of project:
The appraisal of the Gender Based Violence Prevention and Response (P&R) programme was a pre-implementation root and branch review and rewrite. The three person team applied collective knowledge of GBV and expertise in programme design, modalities, redesign of tools (e.g. Result Framework and Theory of Change), institutional management, revision of programme staff ToR, etc. The appraisal contextualised GBV P&R to the Kenyan situation and environment, applying in part a Social Norms Change lens as well as a robust Gender and Human Rights Based Approach.
