SUMMARY

The researchers conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials of community-level and group-based interventions to prevent IPV in lower- and middle-income countries to assess whether community- or group-based gender-transformative interventions reduce IPV. The research found strong evidence that community-level and group-based interventions reduce IPV against women.
