In some countries this growth has taken place in circumstances of relatively slow economic growth, whereas in other countries it has occurred in spite of accelerating economic recovery and declining unemployment rates. There are multiple possible explanations for subdued wage growth in these latter countries, ranging from slow productivity growth to the intensification of global competition, the decline in the bargaining power of workers, the inability of unemployment statistics to adequately capture slack in the labour market, and an uncertain economic outlook which may have discouraged firms from raising wages.

This document presents a global Guidance on addressing school-related gender-based violence. This Global Guidance provides key information to governments, policy-makers, teachers, practitioners and civil society who wish to take concrete action against SRGBV. It introduces approaches, methodologies, tools and resources that have shown positive results in preventing and responding to SRGBV. We are confident that this will contribute to further promote the generation of knowledge, evidence and standards of response against this pervasive problem. With the Global Guidance in hand, this is a key moment for all of us to ensure that SRGBV does not remain a barrier to achieving the SDGs.
