Percentage of the target population who know where to access GBV services

Definition & calculation

Numerator: Number of surveyed respondents who can correctly name at least one available GBV service and how to access it

Denominator: Total number of respondents surveyed in the target population

Survey respondents on their knowledge of available GBV services and access routes; count those who can correctly identify at least one, divided by all respondents.

Formula: (Numerator ÷ Denominator) × 100

Means of verification

KAP survey, household survey, community perception survey

Interpretation

Direction: Higher is better

Typical reporting frequency: Baseline, midline and endline (or annual)

Guidance & common pitfalls

Measures a knowledge precondition for access, not uptake; train enumerators to ask about services without prompting respondents to disclose personal experiences.
