SVRI Forum 2013: Evidence into Action held in Bangkok in October 2013. The aim of SVRI Forum 2013 was to promote promising practices for preventing and responding to sexual and intimate partner violence.
The scope of the SVRI Forum was expanded in 2013 to include both sexual and intimate partner violence. The expanded scope of the SVRI Forum encourages examination of the overlapping nature of these acts of violence. The SVRI Forum 2013 also linked the child protection and SGBV fields by promoting cross sectoral dialogue and exchange on primary prevention of child abuse and neglect especially when linked to future prevention of sexual violence perpetration and victimization.
