The key lessons learned from the research were that working with men is necessary, there is an existing need for community-based gender transformative programs, and women’s economic empowerment programming must adopt a ‘do no harm’ approach. The guidance material kits use these lessons to assist program designers and implementers to integrate the elimination of violence against women into women’s economic empowerment programming.
