UNICEF and the Harvard Humanitarian Initiative (HHI) are working together to improve the monitoring and evaluation (M&E) of GBV risk mitigation in humanitarian action.

We've developed a number of resources and tools through a consultative process to support humanitarian practitioners to strengthen GBV risk mitigation. Good practices, existing knowledge and guidance are provided in the materials below, aimed at helping to make humanitarian programming safer and more responsive to the needs of women and girls. This work has been made possible thanks to the generous support of the US State Department Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration.
In this report, we outline the current state of knowledge on the monitoring and evaluation of GBV risk mitigation, as well as exploring evidence gaps and promising future directions for research.
This document outlines a collection of good practices for the monitoring and evaluation of GBV risk mitigation interventions. It includes a series of case examples to illustrate practical application of good practices.
This document provides background information and framing guidance to support colleagues working in non-GBV sectors to integrate measurement of GBV risk mitigation into their monitoring and evaluation processes, it is intended to be used in conjunction with the Menu of Measures.
Here, we outline a collection of measurement approaches and indicators to support the implementation of monitoring and evaluation of GBV risk mitigation interventions. It is intended to complement the Guidance Note.
We reached out to humanitarian practitioners across the globe to understand lessons learned and good practices for GBV risk mitigation M&E. Click on the case studies below to listen to our mini podcast series:
This case example illustrates challenges in translating terminology within M&E tools and describes some good practices for improving accuracy in translations.

Which proxy indicators can help us better understand GBV risks? Part 1 of this case study on proxy indicators delves into a participatory process used to develop and test proxy indicators for GBV risks related to firewood collection in Kenya.
The focus of this case study is on good practices for measuring changes in GBV-related outcomes though the use of proxy indicators. The case study also explores the key ingredients that must be in place in order to measure these indicators.
GBV risk mitigation M&E can and should look for opportunities to leverage existing and/or routinely collected sources of “secondary data” to inform the overall GBV analysis. This case study illustrates one example of this can be done in the field.
Reported changes in perception of GBV risk can be tricky to interpret, especially on their own. This case example explores the biases that influence data on safety perceptions, and how triangulation of data from different sources can humanitarians gain a better understanding of their findings.
What are some ways to strengthen capacity of colleagues working in other humanitarian sectors on M&E of GBV risk mitigation interventions? This case example focuses on the use of supportive supervision to strengthen M&E capacity.
This project will continue to field-test and refine the guidance note and menu of measures — resources for field practitioners seeking to incorporate GBV risk mitigation measurement into their activities. This work will also build towards an evaluation assessing how GBV risk mitigation can improve both sector-specific and safety outcomes.
