Responding to Violence Against Women and Girls
Image
We use our research to learn what survivors want and need and how communities mobilize to support them.
Women and girls know best what they need to mitigate their risk of violence. We use our research to learn what survivors want and need, and to understand how communities and governments can support survivors:
- Learn how to partner with refugee women and girls to prevent and mitigate the risk of sexual exploitation and abuse in humanitarian aid delivery through our Empowered Aid program.
- Understand proxy indicators for assessing women’s risk of gender-based violence when receiving cash assistance in humanitarian settings, such as those in Iraq and Colombia.
- Check out barriers and new approaches that support survivors’ access to response services in humanitarian contexts through our Putting Survivors at the Center project.
- Read about the intersection of gender-based violence and mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS) for survivors through our work with Trōcaire.
- Learn about the role that women’s movements play in responding to and preventing violence against women and girls through our WEAVE program.
