Minimum Standards and Monitoring Framework

The purpose of this guide is to present a set of minimum standards for a whole school approach to prevent and respond to school-related gender-based violence (SRGBV) and a monitoring framework to measure the effectiveness of the approach. 

The guide has three sections:

Section 1: introduction of the conceptual framework and theory of change, and context for the whole school approach and indicators

Section 2: the whole school approach, including eight minimum standard elements. The core element is effective school leadership and community engagement to design safe and gender-equal learning environments. (others are: code of conduct, capacity building of teachers and educational staff, empowering children to advance child rights, child protection and gender equality, improving reporting, monitoring and accountability, addressing incidents, strengthening physical learning environments, and engaging parents. 

Section 3: guidance on monitoring, how to measure the whole school approach, and ethical and safety considerations for conducting research with children and adults.
