TRIPLE JEOPARDY: Protecting At-Risk Refugee Survivors of Sexual and Gender-Based Violence SGBV AGAINST OLDER REFUGEES

Objectives By the end of the session, participants will understand Root causes and contributing factors that make older refugees vulnerable to SGBV in various phases of displacement Forms of SGBV affecting older refugees Perpetrators of SGBV against older refugees

Power and Vulnerability During Displacement Power – ability, skill or capacity to make decisions and take action When one has less power, fewer choices are available Displacement Phases

Root Causes SGBV against older refugees is caused by abuse of the fundamental imbalance of power between Nationals and refugees Men and women Young and older people

Contributing Factors Factors that contribute to SGBV against older refugees include Instability in the country of origin or asylum Ineffective legal systems Lack of humanitarian assistance, medical care Lack of access to information Inability to communicate Limited financial resources Inability to earn an income, pursue a profession Collapse of social systems of support Low self esteem due to loss of social role and resources

Forced Displacement Intensifies Risk of SGBV Against Older Refugees Older family members may be left alone or with young family caregivers, exposing them to risk Older people may be viewed as a burden by forcibly displaced families This can lead to denial of food, other resources, power Gender roles are affected during displacement E.g., older women left to care for grandchildren become heads of their households; older men who can no longer work, undermining breadwinner role

Four Case Studies Group Activity At which phase of the forced migration cycle did the older person experience SGBV? What kind of SGBV did he or she experience? Who were the perpetrators? What were the root causes and contributing factors that enabled the acts of SGBV? Who assisted the survivors?

Summary SGBV occurs in all phases of forced displacement Root causes of SGBV are connected to power imbalances relating to gender, nationality and age Contributing factors include political instability, broken legal systems, barriers to language information Perpetrators include caregivers, family, refugee and local communities, state and non-state agents Vulnerability of older refugees to SGBV is intensified by social exclusion, barriers to services, breakdown of family and community support networks and limited roles for older persons as keepers of cultural and communal wisdom
