Gender-based violence impunity regional study: El Salvador case study


Completed in December 2023, the El Salvador country case study is one of eight case studies that comprise the LACLEARN GBVI Regional Study. Applying an intersectional gender and political economy approach, this case study explores impunity for femicide and transfemicide among cisgender and transgender women. The case study first diagnoses the state of GBV impunity in El Salvador, then identifies solutions to address impunity, and finally provides practical recommendations to USAID on strategies for operationalizing changes needed to promote pathways to GBV accountability that survivors recommend.
