Adaptation of the RESPECT framework to prevent violence against women, Indonesia.

Problem: Violence against women is a global health problem. Effectively preventing such violence requires locally adapted strategies.

Approach: The World Health Organization in Indonesia, in collaboration with United Nations (UN) Population Fund, UN Women, United Nations Children's Fund, United Nations Development Programme and Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS, launched capacity-building initiatives to introduce RESPECT as an evidence-based framework to address violence against women.
