Reflect and discuss: Prevention, mitigation, or response

[Grace Mukhuta-Banda]

I would place it on the universal prevention because it seeks to address issues for the wider community and not a select few. Also, it would fall in line with the mitigation and response where as the issues at hand are being responded to, plans are underway to mitigate the prevalence of GBV by addressing the root causes.

The Activity around having an open day as part of community sensitization is a universal prevention activity as it targets the whole community

[Dennis Ngumi Wangombe]

While consequences of VAW are more dangerous to an individual advancing to society, with a high VAW prevalence rate, anti-violence social norms will place more preventive practices in the whole community thus an UNIVERSAL PREVENTION activity on the prevention-to-response continuum.

[Amos Mlotha]

Involvement of community activists in creating awareness on the effects of GBV is placed on universal prevention as it is not only targeting a selected group but the community at large.

Mobilizing GBV survivors and taking them through counseling. It is a selective prevention because I chose to work with only GBV survivors
