Intersectionality in Gender-Based Violence (GBV) Programming
Abstract
This briefing paper proposes to consider that Gender Based Violence (GBV) is in fact rarely based solely on a person's gender.Experiences of exclusion, discrimination and violence are fueled by individual, social, political and institutional perceptions of these different identity factors as a whole and at their intersection.
This briefing paper highlights the importance of an intersectional analysis, at a minimum on the basis of disability, gender and age factors, to ensure that all survivors of GBV are considered and that their unique needs are addressed by formal and informal actors in
the fight against GBV.
