Our online library strives to create a single stop to support learning for those working in or interested in the VAW sector. We want to include resources that are relevant to organizations, individuals, and others aiming to understanding key issues, develop organizational policies, and improve their capacity to respond to diverse populations of women. We only include resources that are freely available, unless we have specific permission from a copyright owner to reproduce a work here.

We welcome recommendations for resources from everyone who uses this online library. We want the resource centre to be relevant to the whole community of VAW practitioners and advocates.
