Recognizing the critical role of women-led organizations in addressing GBV, this webinar aims to shed light on innovative approaches to support these organizations, amplify their voices, and explore strategic funding mechanisms to empower them and their efforts to prevent GBV from occurring during emergencies. This event will highlight the approaches in strengthening the role of WLOs in GBV coordination, capacity to influence humanitarian decision making and increasing access to more flexible, longer-term humanitarian financing. Examples of recent achievements include the global CERF grant and its higher-than-target funding to WLOs, and the IASC Principals Roundtable on GBV financing hosted by the ERC and Germany, in its Call to Action leadership role.
Objectives:
- Raise Awareness: Increase awareness about the importance of GBV prevention in emergencies and the unique contributions of WLOs in this context.
- Showcase Good Practices: Share successful programs carried out by GBV AoR members and country teams, highlighting their impact on GBV prevention.
- Empower Organizations: Provide insights into innovative funding models and strategies that enhance the role of WLOs and in GBV prevention and response.
- Promote Collaboration: Foster collaboration and knowledge exchange between GBV actors, including the UN organizations, INGOs, WLOs and donors to strengthen the GBV prevention agenda.
