Abstract

This review and contextualised report provide information about different Gender-Responsive Policing (GRP) initiatives and assessment of their impact, which would be helpful in designing and evaluation of GRP interventions. This information is important for stakeholders such as police training institutions, civil society organizations working with community and policing institutions, policy makers and researchers. The in-depth focus on South Asia and particularly on Pakistan is helpful to understand the contextual information about different interventions implemented in these settings

This report was commissioned under the Department for International Development’s DFID Systematic Review Programme for South Asia.
