“With Money I’m the Queen”: How Cash Assistance Can Help Survivors Recover from Gender-Based Violence - WRC 2022
02 Jun, 2022
Gender-based violence (GBV), including intimate partner violence (IPV), is a global scourge, including among displaced people. For several years, the Women’s Refugee Commission (WRC) has been looking at whether giving survivors of GBV cash alongside case management will enhance their protection and well-being. Survivors can, among other things, use cash to pay for shelter away from abusers and access medical or legal services essential to their recovery.

Gender-based Violence (GBV) Risk Analysis for Cash and Voucher Assistance (CVA) in Ukraine - GBV AoR, OCHA, ACTED 2022
07 Jun, 2022
A GBV Task Force was formed by members of the Gender-Based Violence (GBV) Sub-Cluster and the Cash Working Group (CWG) in April 2022 in Ukraine. This Task Force (TF) has been created to support GBV mainstreaming within Cash programming for the Ukraine response. The role of this TF is to review tools, assessments and plans for the roll-out of Cash and Voucher Assistance (CVA), but also to provide a “GBV Risk Analysis of CVA for the Ukraine context”. To this end, more than 15 members of the TF gathered on May 6 to undertake this analysis based on information from operational partners in both GBV and CVA and information collected from different assessments. Preliminary results from this joint exercise were then shared for feedback to a wider audience of GBV and CVA actors.

Webinar: Transcending Gender Norms: Using gender transformative approaches in Women and Girls’ Safe Spaces in Humanitarian Settings
Background: In humanitarian settings, gender inequality, one of the root causes of Gender-based Violence, remains the greatest structural barrier to women’s and girls’ participation. GBV practitioners seek to transform these gender hierarchies which legitimize and perpetuate violence against women and girls entangled in conflicts, disasters and displacement through their programming. Women’s and Girls’ Safe Spaces (WGSS) are used commonly to deliver GBV programming in humanitarian emergencies worldwide and represent a place where women and girls can find safety, community, and healing and work together toward common and personal objectives and empowerment. These spaces offer women and girls unique opportunities to rebuild the social and safety structures lost due to emergencies, cultivate valuable life skills, and link GBV survivors to specialized support. The 2019 Women and Girls Safe Space Toolkit outlined five spec...

ҐЕНДЕРНО ЗУМОВЛЕНЕ НАСИЛЬСТВО В УКРАЇНІ
20 Jun, 2022
Військове вторгнення Росії 24 лютого 2022 року стало шоком для країни та світу (CARE, 2022 р.) і створює значні ризики (включаючи ризик ҐЗН) для постраждалого населення України. Урядова уповноважена з прав людини та Міністерство внутрішніх справ України повідомили про випадки зґвалтування та сексуального насильства на непідконтрольних Уряду територіях. Організація «Human Rights Watch» зафіксувала «очевидні воєнні злочини», включаючи зґвалтування, на підконтрольних Росії територіях, а представники/-ці місцевої влади в Бучі (Київська область) повідомили про виявлення місць масового поховання мирного населення, яке, як стверджується, було вбито російськими військами. Генеральний секретар ООН і Верховний комісар ООН з прав людини закликали до незалежного розслідування цих повідомлень (UNFPA, 5 квітня 2022 р.). Після восьми років збройного конфлікту – спричиненого вторгненням Росії в Крим у 2014 році – гуманітарна криза в Україні стала затяжною (OCHA, 2022 р.). Після вторгнення в лютому 202...
