Effectiveness of European Union funding targeting the elimination of gender-based violence

The European Parliament FEMM Committee held a hearing on January 23rd to discuss the implementation of EU Funds aimed at fighting violence against women and girls. Milieu prepared the study which was used to support dialogue between interest groups and policymakers on the effectiveness of European Union funding targeting the elimination of gender-based violence. Using extensive desk research and an original analysis of project-level information, the report investigates the relevance of priorities and funded actions, the extent to which results addressed the objective of combatting and preventing violence against women and girls and the coherence of funding with other EU instruments and programmes.  The findings of the report will be used to identify priorities for the post-2020 Multi-annual Financial Framework (MFF) aimed at eliminating gender-based violence.
