Can Targeting Men Reduce Intimate Partner Violence?

This brief outlines findings from the qualitative, time-series impact evaluation of the Living Peace intervention piloted by Equimundo in Democratic Republic of the Congo. The Living Peace program targeted the husbands of women who had experienced conflict-related rape and intimate partner violence in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), helping men and their partners develop positive coping strategies and restore violence-free relationships in post-conflict and high-violence settings.
