INSPIRE is an evidence-based resource for everyone committed to preventing and responding to violence against children and adolescents — including governments, grassroots, civil society, and the private sector.
It provides seven evidence-based strategies:
Implementation and enforcement of laws
Norms and values
Safe environments
Parent and caregiver support
Income and economic strengthening
Response and support services
Education and life skills
These are designed to support countries and communities to intensify their focus on prevention programmes and services in order to reduce violence against children, strengthening public consensus that it will not be tolerated.
INSPIRE includes two cross-cutting activities that together help connect and strengthen – and assess progress towards – the seven strategies.
