Welcome to the ANROWS Evidence Portal – a living resource of interventions from high-income countries that aim to address and end violence against women.
The Evidence Portal can be thought of as both a curated database – containing only references to impact evaluations of interventions to end violence against women – and a specialised search engine, which allows you to search for information using filters and tools designed for the violence against women sector.
You can explore our Evidence and Gap Maps and Geographic Evidence Maps to get a visual overview of the available evidence and gaps in the knowledge base. Use the Intervention Finder to search for details on a particular intervention, including its impact, and its applicability to different population groups.
The Evidence Portal is an ongoing project and will be updated regularly. For updates, subscribe to our newsletter.
