Son preference and gender-biased sex selection have both individual consequences — family and community pressure to have male children, as well as violence, including forced abortion — and demographic consequences. A society with a surplus of men could face increased migration, human trafficking, crime, gender-based violence and political unrest. In presenting successful efforts to address son preference and gender-biased sex selection in the South Caucasus, the Compendium of Good Practices is a resource that can inform programming on these issues in other parts of the Eastern Europe and Central Asia region.
