The Prevention Collaborative is a group of practitioners and researchers working to connect local and global knowledge to prevent violence against women and their children. What unites us is our commitment to social justice and making the world safer and more empowering for women and the next generation. Our aspiration is that in 20 years, a vibrant network of well-connected and resourced organisations and individuals will be effectively reducing violence against women and children in their countries and communities, using strategies rooted in evidence and good practice and guided by feminist principles.
CURATE EVIDENCE AND PRACTICE-BASED KNOWLEDGE
We critically review emerging evidence and learning, synthesising and sharing the insights most useful to practitioners.
STRENGTHEN CAPACITY TO DESIGN AND DELIVER QUALITY PROGRAMMES
Through our Learning Lab, Cluster Programme, Accompaniment, and Strategic Advisory Services, we equip practitioners and organisations with the knowledge, skills, and sustained support to transform the social and structural factors that underpin violence.
FOSTER INNOVATION AND CHAMPION WHAT WORKS
We advocate for proven but underutilised prevention strategies—addressing harmful alcohol use, harnessing technology, championing policy reform—and act boldly when the evidence points the way.
BUILD A STRONGER, MORE CONNECTED PREVENTION FIELD
We bridge research and practice, VAW and VAC, public health and feminism, connecting communities that too often work in isolation and building the ecosystem that effective prevention requires.
The Prevention Collaborative is a trusted resource and ally to women’s rights organisations, civil society groups, international NGOs, donors, and governments. We remain committed to strengthening their ability to deliver cutting-edge prevention programmes informed by research-based evidence, practice-based knowledge, and feminist principles.
