Participatory Diagnosis

Participatory Diagnosis

Short description

This method identifies factors that make women and girls insecure in cities and communities. The process of working with women and girls can be much easier if community decision-makers and community organizations work with women and girls to identify the places, circumstances and issues that cause the greatest sense of insecurity. Participatory diagnoses are important because they give women and girls a chance to tell the community what makes them feel insecure and what kinds of violence they face.
