Webinar Series: Tackling Gender Based Violence via Cash and Voucher Assistance
Gender-based violence (GBV) is rampant — globally, one in three women experiences some form of violence or abuse. GBV is pervasive in humanitarian settings and anecdotal evidence points to the increase in GBV since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. Since 2018, there has been an increased focus on the use of Cash and Voucher Assistance (CVA) for protection outcomes, including the integration of CVA into GBV response. An array of guidance and tools on the topic are now available. UNFPA outlined in their 2022 Humanitarian Action Overview that cash transfers would be an integral part of their GBV prevention and response approach. However, evidence from the use of CVA for GBV outcomes is scarce and opportunities to leverage CVA within a GBV case management framework are rarely seized. Significant knowledge gaps remain on the topic for CVA and GBV specialists alike. To fill this gap and raise the interest of practitioners, t...
