Background
We are delighted to invite you to the launch of a new suite of resources on practice-based knowledge (PbK) — a comprehensive guide designed for those working in childhood sexual violence (CSV) prevention and response.
This new suite of resources includes:
- The role of practice-based knowledge in preventing and responding to childhood sexual violence: Background paper
- Using practice-based knowledge to prevent and respond to childhood sexual violence: Guidance framework
- Frequently asked questions on practice-based knowledge
Together, these resources emphasize why PbK is critical in CSV prevention and response. They support practitioners to gather and apply real-world insights gained through experience, reflection, and adaptation — complementing formal research and strengthening evidence-informed action.
