INSPIRE: Seven strategies for ending violence against children: Uptake between 2016 and 2021

Since its publication in 2016, INSPIRE: seven strategies for ending violence against children has acted as a key global resource for implementing, adapting and monitoring interventions to prevent and respond to violence against children. This report – based on a desk review, a global literature survey, and interviews with key stakeholders – documents uptake, adaptions and implementation of INSPIRE over the past 5 years including the degree to which the violence prevention community has adopted the INSPIRE framework, how the strategies have been used, and the extent to which these global tools and resources have found ownership at local, national, and regional levels. The INSPIRE Working Group will continue to strengthen ownership, coordination, evidence, and capacity building in countries throughout the world in our collective efforts to prevent all forms of violence against children.
