Cash and GBV Workshop in Burundi - GBV AoR 2019
20 Nov, 2019
Cash and voucher assistance (CVA) has become a valuable and increasingly utilized tool in humanitarian response in Burundi. CVA has been shown to contribute to the resilience of vulnerable populations, but in order to maximize its effectiveness, humanitarian actors should establish Gender-Based Violence (GBV) risk prevention and mitigation measures. While the Burundi Humanitarian Country Team has declared CVA a priority, and eight sectoral objectives mention CVA in the 2019 Humanitarian Response Plan, it is critical that actors are able to identify GBV risks as well as good practices in terms of risk mitigation measures.

S’inspirant d’outils élaborés au niveau global ces dernières années, un atelier de trois jours a vu se réunir les acteurs VBG et TM du Burundi en octobre 2019. Cet atelier avait pour but de contextualiser ces outils, d’identifier les bonnes pratiques déjà en vigueur dans les projets TM existants au Burundi, mais surtout d’esquisser des pistes de travail communes aux professionels des secteurs du transfert monétaire et de la protection/VBG.

International Human Rights Day
Human Rights Day is observed every year on 10 December – the day the United Nations General Assembly adopted, in 1948, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Drafted by representatives of diverse legal and cultural backgrounds from all regions of the world, the Declaration sets out universal values and a common standard of achievement for all peoples and all nations. It establishes the equal dignity and worth of every person. Thanks to the Declaration, and States' commitments to its principles, the dignity of millions has been uplifted and the foundation for a more just world has been laid. While its promise is yet to be fully realized, the very fact that it has stood the test of time is testament to the enduring universality of its perennial values of equality, justice and human dignity.
