Incorporating a Gender-Based Violence Lens in Development Finance Institutions and Multilateral Development Banks' Infrastructure Investments

From Criterion Institute. Gender-based violence is material to infrastructure investments. Infrastructure projects designed without a gender lens can lead to unintended consequences, including higher rates of violence; at the same time, well-designed projects can decrease violence and help countries meet development objectives. Institutions can design their investment processes to incorporate a gender-based violence analysis and get to better outcomes.
