About us
We’re a collective of activists, practitioners, researchers, and funders from over 10 countries across Latin America, North America, Africa, Europe, and Southeast Asia. Together, we’re advancing knowledge and practice for adapting violence against women (VAW) prevention programmes through shared learning, respect for lived experiences, and community building.
We see adaptation as a collaborative practice, strengthened when people learn across roles, contexts, and experiences.
