Summary

This report is based on a mixed methods approach, using both the review of secondary materials and primary data collection. The first part consists of desk research based on secondary data and reports on state practices. The second part involves a standardized questionnaire administered to CSOs to probe their perceptions of state actions to prevent and respond to ICT VAWG. The third part comprises focus group discussions with both civil society experts and government officials (where possible), and key informant interviews. The objective of these discussions and interviews was to obtain insights on systemic national patterns or issues as well as perceptions and opinions of in-country experts on state and Internet intermediary actions in preventing and responding to ICT VAWG.
