Project Overview:
Change Alliance conducted an endline evaluation of the PR3 Initiative implemented by Jan Sahas to assess the effectiveness, relevance, sustainability, and impact of interventions aimed at reducing sexual violence against women and girls. The evaluation examined how community-based prevention approaches, survivor support mechanisms, and institutional strengthening efforts contributed to creating safer environments and improved access to support systems for vulnerable populations. Through a mixed-method approach, the study generated evidence to inform future programming and strengthen survivor-centred interventions.

• Reducing the prevalence of sexual violence against women and girls
