CARICOM Advisory Group on Statistics meets in Georgetown
The main objectives of the workshop are strengthening capacity in order to enable the collection of administrative data on Gender Based Violence (GBV) which includes both intra-family and domestic violence; identify issues and concerns around GBV so as to inform data collection and disaggregation; and developing a harmonised approach to GBV data gathering and disaggregation.
The meeting comes under a CARIFORUM Project, Support for Crime and Violence Prevention and Social Development, Programme Estimate No.1 funded under the Tenth European Development Fund (EDF). The project aims to strengthen the Region’s capacity to prevent crime and violence through support for Crime Prevention, Risk Reduction, and Restorative Justice in CARIFORUM.
The activity is being executed by the Human and Social Development (HSD) Directorate of the CARICOM Secretariat. Specifically, it provides the opportunity to build capacity of service providers, strengthen institutional systems and networks to effectively develop/strengthen social and situation crime prevention strategies with emphasis on areas including intra-family violence.
