Engaging men in gender transformative approaches to end violence against women

Abstract
Engaging men in gender transformative approaches to end violence against women is a Guidance Note to Inform the Development of National Policies and Programmes Based on Results from the International Men and Gender Equality Survey (IMAGES) in Middle East and North Africa. This guidance note draws data and recommendations from Understanding Masculinities: Results from the International Men and Gender Equality Survey (IMAGES) – Middle East and North Africa on the topic of ending violence against women2 for the well-being of women, men, children and societies. It provides broad guidance on how civil society partners and United Nations key players in the region can design and adapt programming and influence a policy environment that promotes non-violence at home, at work and in public spaces, all with a view to achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030.
