Women and Girls Safe Spaces: A Toolkit for Advancing Women's and Girls’ Empowerment in Humanitarian Settings - IRC & IMC 2019
21 Feb, 2020
Historically, because men’s power over women denied them the right to participate in the public space, the cultivation of safe, women-only spaces has been a vital counterspace created for women to network and for feminist movements to organize. These spaces and the activists working within them facilitated women to recognize their own agency and power for change (power within), their power to organize themselves to articulate the changes they wanted to make (power to), and collectively transform the systems that oppressed them (power with).

REGA Review: Abridged Report - April 2023
23 May, 2024
Since the establishment of the Regional Emergency GBV Advisors (REGA) structure as an emergency mechanism in 2014, it has been challenging to ensure the systematic collection and analysis of evidence to assess its impact and relevance - beyond the number of deployments or the size and composition of the teams. A lack of qualitative evidence for the sustainability of the deployments measured in the extent to which their work has been capitalised on, replicated and sustainably absorbed by country offices, field GBV sub-clusters and UNFPA Regional Offices has also been noted.
