With the caveat that I did not do a geographical assessment in this shallow, I would guess that it would be likely that this would be initially targeted in certain LMIC countries (especially in Africa and Asia) as they have a high and increasing burden of VAWG and have been the focus of prior studies in this space. However, it is also true that the burden of VAWG is considerable and not significantly dissimilar between LMIC and HIC, so I have low confidence on this claim.
In addition to the difference in VAWG burden, there are also differences in implementation costs. Interventions will be cheaper in low-income countries than in high-income countries.
Not necessarily. It will depend heavily on the type of intervention and the issue . If the issue is rooted in entrenched cultural attitudes due to low education, conservative attitudes, and entrenched traditional values as I suspect would be the case in many low-income countries then an intervention may be prohibitively more expensive to implement in a low-income country.

Lobbying governments may also be easier in higher income countries in terms of their ability to enforce new norms.
