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. In addition, the Gender-Based Violence (GBV) expertise gap in operations seems to have grown between 2014 and 2019, which was reflected by the commitment in the 2019 REGA Letter of Intent to expand the composition of the REGA teams by adding new areas of GBV expertise (Regional Coordination and Information Management) to provide wider support to country operations. Nonetheless, there has been little joint ana...

Le GBV AoR applique un point de vue féministe dans sa promotion de l’action collective visant à améliorer l’efficacité et la redevabilité de l’intervention humanitaire aux fins de la prévention et de l’atténuation de toutes les formes de violence basée sur le genre et la réponse à ces dernières, dans le but de s’assurer que le pouvoir d’agir et la capacité des survivant(e)s dans toutes leurs diversités sont reconnus et renforcés et que des efforts de prévention sont effectivement déployés pour traiter et transformer les inégalités de genre sous-jacentes.
UNFPA CVA Activities in Palestine
30 Aug, 2021
The COVID-19 pandemic increased the risk of gender-based violence (GBV) for women and girls in Palestine. Women reported to UNFPA that diminished economic opportunities and financial stress significantly contributed to this increased risk. In response, UNFPA provided vouchers to respond to the urgent needs of economically vulnerable families and women at risk of GBV in Gaza and East Jerusalem. Beneficiaries reported high satisfaction rates in the post- distribution monitoring. In Gaza, 97% of beneficiaries reported that the program had a positive impact on their psychological well-being.

UNFPA Indicators for GBV Risk Mitigation in Cash Assistance with Supporting Guidance
26 Sep, 2023
This guide offers proxy indicators for assessing GBV risks to women in cash interventions. Cash actors can adapt these proxy indicators, which were developed based on operational research that focused on multipurpose cash assistance programmes, according to their context and the structure of their cash interventions. Each indicator is presented with example questions and user-friendly guidance on how to contextualize, measure, and interpret data to better detect and mitigate GBV risks in cash assistance. Measuring these indicators over time as part of routine monitoring allows cash actors to track trends related to gendered attitudes, beliefs, and social norms held by both men and women cash recipients, as well as behaviors used by women who receive cash to keep themselves safe. These indicators were developed through a collaboration between UNFPA and the Global Women’s Institute at George Washington University (GWI) that was completed in 2023 to examine GBV risk in relation to cash...
Directives de l’UNFPA : Comment élaborer et mettre en place l’assistance en espèces pour la gestion de cas de VBG
13 Jun, 2023
Les dispositions relatives aux modalités d’utilisation de l’aide financière dans le cadre de la gestion des cas de VBG doivent être soigneusement étudiées afin d’atténuer les risques associés et d’éviter les conséquences négatives involontaires de l’aide financière. Les présentes directives visent à guider les spécialistes de l’UNFPA en matière de lutte contre la VBG et d’assistance en espèces et à les aider à évaluer, à élaborer, à mettre en œuvre et à intégrer l’assistance en espèces dans la programmation de la gestion de cas de VBG de manière sûre et efficace. Elles s’appuient sur les nombreux retours d’information des bénéficiaires de l’assistance en espèces, des gestionnaires de cas concerné-e-s et des partenaires de mise en œuvre sur le terrain. Pour des exemples de l'intégration par l'UNFPA de l'assistance en espèces dans les services de gestion des cas de VBG, voir les rapports suivants : Du risque au choix : L'assistance en esp...
Rapid Review of the inclusion of People with Disabilities and Older People in Gender-Based Violence (GBV) Humanitarian Interventions - ELRHA & Voice 2019
01 Nov, 2019
Elrha is a global charity that finds solutions to complex humanitarian problems through research and innovation. Elrha identified a knowledge gap in good practices and innovation for how people with disabilities and older people are included in gender-based violence interventions in humanitarian contexts. To support a new area of focus under their Humanitarian Innovation Fund on Disability and Older Age Inclusion, Elrha commissioned an independent rapid review to review the inclusion of people with disabilities and older people in humanitarian GBV interventions.
