Abstract

This thesis researches the relation between development, religion and gender-based violence. It focuses on the interconnections between development and religion. In order to analyse the complexity of gender-based violence, this thesis elaborates on the importance of taking an intersectional approach. This is outlined with the use of Bolivia as case study, in which the religious influence on working with the topic of gender-based violence from faith-based organisations is emphasised. Furthermore, the intersectionality tries to show the mechanisms of both oppressive and empowering characteristics of gender-based violence within Bolivian society.
