Supporting Uptake of Survivor-Centered Practice: Building Consensus Between GBV And MHPSS Workers Around Shared Guiding Principles and Recommendations for Progressing Practice - GWI & Trocaire 2023

Sep 20, 2023

Ensuring that service providers are equipped to provide safe, effective, and survivor-centered mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS) to women and girls who have experienced GBV is critical, especially in humanitarian settings where resources are often limited.

The resources shared below are based on a dedicated project led by the Global Women’s Institute (GWI) at George Washington University and Trócaire with funding from USAID’s Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance (BHA). This project explored the intersections of MHPSS and GBV response in order to build consensus between both sectors on what constitutes survivor-centered MHPSS interventions and approaches to GBV survivors in humanitarian settings.

This resource consists of five (5) learning briefs and guidance notes, each accompanied by a short video and job aids (infographics). The resource package is available in Arabic, Burmese, English, French, Somali, and Spanish.
