Gender Violence Map
The Gender Violence Map is an initiative of the Gender and Number Institute to visibilize the situation of vulnerability of women and LGBT+ communities, and the recurrent violence to which they are victims, on the one hand; and to demonstrate the lack of sufficient data and the problem that this represents when designing public policies, on the other. The Institute collaborated with different state agencies, international organizations, and citizens to collect partial data and map physical attacks, rapes, and homicides against women and LGBT+ people throughout Brazil. Hand in hand with the release of the mapping result, the group launched an information campaign on violence against these groups, the legislation aimed at their protection (sometimes partial or insufficient) in each region of the country, and the existing data gaps. Once the mapping was published, the group began collaborating with state agencies with the goal of beginning to fill in the data gaps.
Institutional design
Formalization: is the innovation embedded in the constitution or legislation, in an administrative act, or not formalized at all?
Frequency: how often does the innovation take place: only once, sporadically, or is it permanent or regular?
Mode of Selection of Participants: is the innovation open to all participants, access is restricted to some kind of condition, or both methods apply?
Type of participants: those who participate are individual citizens, civil society organizations, private stakeholders or a combination of those?
Decisiveness: does the innovation takes binding, non-binding or no decision at all?
Co-governance: is there involvement of the government in the process or not?
