We are pleased to share this knowledge synthesis of recent gender-based violence related reports: A Synthesis of Action Plans for Ending Gender-Based Violence & Promoting Equity in Nova Scotia.
Be the Peace Institute was contracted by Women’s Centres Connect through generous funding from the NS Status of Women Office to read, summarize and synthesize findings and recommendations for the prevention and response to GBV from key and recent reports. Synthesized findings across reports are meant to inform immediate practice changes, opportunities to amplify and support sector influence and advocacy opportunities for collective impact.
