Essential Issues to Consider

The GBV coordinating agencies ... are responsible for ensuring that there is regular compilation and reporting of non-identifying GBV incident data; that this report is discussed and analysed in the GBV working groups; and that it is disseminated to key actors, including the community and local authorities.

Essential Issues to Consider

Monitoring and evaluation ... Involves more than compiling and

monitoring reported incident data Reported incidents represent only a small

proportion of the actual GBV incidents that may be occurring in the setting

Need to find, compile, and monitor qualitative information about GBV

Documentation

• 9.1. Documentation of reported incidents– Consistent data elements – forms – training

• 9.2. Data management (reported incidents)– Compiled incident data reports

5

Operational Considerations

• In the context of GBV program planning, there are 4 options for information-sharing:– Share individual intake forms (not recommended) – Share all data from intake forms (anonymous/de-

identified) – Share some of the data from intake forms – Share statistical outputs: Analyzed and correlated

data

9.3. Qualitative Data

Some examples:• Results of focus group discussions• Rumours of GBV incidents• Community perceptions of risky areas or

suspicious activities

Small Groups

Small Group Work

• Identify at least 10 sources of qualitative data/information and list on a flip chart paper.

• These may help the GBV team to further understand – The nature and extent of GBV in the setting– Knowledge, attitudes, and behavior about

GBV– Results of prevention and response efforts

are being met• Usually expressed as a proportion or a

percentage• Output indicators count the products or services
