The Kenya government has performed fairly well in the enactment of laws, policies and regulations on response prevention and management of Sexual and Gender Based Violence. These laws, policies, rules and regulations have been extensively utilized in the process of developing this SGBV M&E framework. To mention a few, the drafters considered provisions of the Constitution (2010), the Sexual Offences Act (2006), the Children's Act(2001) the Penal Code (2009), the Prohibition of Female Genital Mutilation Act (2011), the National Gender and Equality Commission Act (2011),among other key national legislations and international instruments including the Convention on the Elimination of all Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW) 1979,the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) 1990, and the Protocol to the African Charter on Human and Peoples' Rights on the Rights of Women in Africa (Maputo Protocol, 2003). These form the legal, human rights and State obligation context upon which the framework is premised as a living document for the collection of data on SGBV in Kenya. The Commission, pursuant to its mandate and functions as stipulated in the Constitution of Kenya 2010, and in the National Gender and Equality Commission Act 2011, in collaboration with LVCT Health, I-TECH, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, facilitated the development process for a national multi-sectoral Monitoring and Evaluation Framework for Prevention of and Response to Sexual and Gender Based Violence in Kenya. The multi-sectoral framework was developed based on agreed understanding of the continuum of services, and roles and obligations of numerous sectors and their links to the broader spectrum of response prevention, and coordination of SGBV intervention in Kenya. An intensive consultative process was followed in every phase of the development of this framework. Beyond agreements on critical indicators, indicator definitions, performance measurements, feedback and validation of the framework, the stakeholders outlined responsibilities of each agency in the implementation path of the framework. Their participation was crucial in ensuring consensus, quality and ownership of the process and the framework. The framework provides the following: Establishes one integrated and functional SGBV multi-sectoral monitoring and evaluation system; Monitoring and evaluation of national efforts in the prevention of and response to SGBV; and Contributes to evidence-informed funding, advocacy, decision making and programming. The framework takes cognizance and complements other related national frameworks including the National HIV and AIDS Monitoring, Evaluation and Research Framework (2009/10-2012/13); Monitoring and Evaluation framework for Kenya Health Sector Strategic Investment Plan (July 2012- June 2018) and the Vision 2030 implementation framework. This relationship is intended to establish linkages in reporting due to the documented intersections between GBV and other health challenges, including HIV.

Worldwide, patterns of violence against women differ markedly from violence against men. For example, women are more likely than men to be sexually assaulted or killed by someone they know. The United Nations has defined violence against women as "gender-based" violence, to acknowledge that such violence is rooted in gender inequality and is often tolerated and condoned by laws, institutions, and community norms. Violence against women is not only a profound violation of human rights, but also a costly impediment to a country's national development. While gender-based violence occurs in many forms throughout the life cycle, this review focuses on two of the most common types-physical intimate partner violence and sexual violence by any perpetrator. Unfortunately, the knowledge base about effective initiatives to prevent and respond to gender-based violence is relatively limited. Few approaches have been rigorously evaluated, even in high-income countries. And such evaluations involve numerous methodological challenges. Nonetheless, the authors review what is known about more and less effective-or at least promising-approaches to prevent and respond to gender-based violence. They present definitions, recent statistics, health consequences, costs, and risk factors of gender-based violence. The authors analyze good practice initiatives in the justice, health, and education sectors, as well as multisectoral approaches. For each of these sectors, they examine initiatives that have addressed laws and policies, institutional reforms, community mobilization, and individual behavior change strategies. Finally, the authors identify priorities for future research and action, including funding research on the health and socioeconomic costs of violence against women, encouraging science-based program evaluations, disseminating evaluation results across countries, promoting investment in effective prevention and treatment initiatives, and encouraging public-private partnerships.

This textbook provides students across Social Sciences, Humanities, Politics, and International Studies with an in-depth understanding of the issues, policies, and strategies for addressing the symptoms and root causes of violence against women (VAW) in sub-Saharan Africa. This text uses the United Nations Security Council’s Resolution 1325 (UNSCR 1325) on Women, Peace and Security in Eastern and Southern Africa as a framework to present the causes and impacts of VAW and to trace the journey of sub-Saharan African countries toward gender equality. It also provides an overview of the policy and legislative frameworks that underpin the progress, challenges, and achievements of addressing VAW based on four key pillars: prevention, protection, participation, and relief and recovery. Chapters provide a wealth of knowledge, as the book draws on academic literature; national, regional, and international legislations; and data collected from field research, and makes use of end-of-chapter discussion questions and quick study guides. Students will come away equipped with the tools, resources, and knowledge necessary to address and fix VAW in sub-Saharan Africa and beyond.
