Presentation transcript:

Violence & Vulnerabilities Addressing GBV & HIV in Humanitarian Settings

Why are emergencies more dangerous? Exacerbate existing vulnerabilities & inequalities Females deliberately targeted = increased risk of violence Lack of necessary health care Economic vulnerability – including at risk by those delivering aid More likely to die than males Disproportionate levels of household burden – including care for people living with HIV Often at greatest risk of personal & bodily safety

Why do we need to respond? GBV is a life-threatening protection issue that is magnified in humanitarian emergencies. Sexual violence is the most immediate & dangerous type of GBV occurring in emergencies – affecting women, men, girls, & boys. It is the duty of all humanitarian actors to prevent sexual violence & to provide appropriate assistance to survivors. GBV intervention is NOT an add-on – it is ESSENTIAL from the beginning of any emergency

What core concepts guide our work? GENDER + GBV + PROTECTION + EMERGENCIES + 3 APPROACHES: 1.RIGHTS-BASED + 2.SURVIVOR-CENTERED + 3.COMMUNITY-BASED + GUIDING PRINCIPLES = foundation for GBV programming in emergencies

FAMILY COMMUNITY GBV Response SURVIVOR HEALTH PSS JUSTICE SECURITY SOCIO- ECON

What is a referral system? Support for survivors = MULTI-SECTORAL MODEL All key sectors + survivor at center Referral SYSTEM = Referral NETWORK of service providers & actors + Referral PATHWAY to explain how survivor might access services

What tool can we use for coordination? Handbook for Coordinating Gender- based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Settings - GBV AoR, 2010

What tool can we use for GBV P&R across sectors? Guidelines for GBV Interventions in Humanitarian Settings: Focusing on Prevention of & Response to Sexual Violence in Emergencies – IASC, 2005

What are SOPs? Specific procedures & agreements among organizations Plan of action & roles & responsibilities Minimum standards for prevention & response in emergencies A process: capacity building + communication + consensus building + partnership building

What tool can we use for SOPs? Guidelines for GBV Interventions in Humanitarian Settings: Focusing on Prevention of & Response to Sexual Violence in Emergencies – IASC, 2008

Why conduct GBV assessments in emergencies? To better understand situation To ensure delivery in line with guiding principles Can also be an intervention Every question = response relevant to programming = improved services for survivors NOT to justify action

What tool can we use for assessments? Ethical & Safety Recommendations for Researching, Documenting, & Monitoring Sexual Violence in Emergencies – WHO, 2007
