Gender-Based Violence Prevention Services in Nairobi’s Slums: An Impact Evaluation and Reduction Strategy Analysis

Gender-based violence (GBV) is a significant public health issue in Nairobi’s slums, contributing to high mortality rates.

The proportion of women who accessed GBV prevention services increased by 25% over the year, yet only 30% reported feeling fully supported in their use of these services. Existing GBV prevention services are effective but require enhanced support to increase user satisfaction and effectiveness. Develop a comprehensive referral system linking services with community resources and allocate additional funding for service enhancement.
