Client:
UNICEF and Harvard Humanitarian Initiative
GBV Guidelines (Global Technical Guidelines on the Prevention of and Response to Gender-Based Violence).
Project Overview:
Manifest Media partnered with the GBV Guidelines team to strengthen their digital knowledge products through a coordinated suite of multimedia content. The objective was to translate complex, evidence-based guidance on gender-based violence (GBV) prevention and response into accessible, engaging formats for a global audience of practitioners, policymakers, and advocates.
Our Role:
We produced and edited a series of podcasts and videos that elevate expert insight and lived experience, supporting deeper understanding of what works in GBV prevention and response.
Alongside this, we designed clear, visually compelling reports and digital materials that communicate key findings and recommendations in a user-friendly way.
Across all deliverables, we ensured cultural sensitivity and close alignment with the Guidelines’ survivor-centred, evidence-based principles.
Impact:
The multimedia assets have expanded the reach and usability of the GBV Guidelines worldwide. By combining rigorous data with human-centred storytelling, the project has enabled audiences to engage more deeply with the evidence and apply it more effectively—strengthening critical conversations and action on GBV prevention and response across contexts.
