Gender-based Violence (GBV) Sub-sector
The protection and safety of women, girls and other groups at risk of gender-based violence can only be achieved through collective and sustainable action. This is because gender-based violence (GBV) is best addressed when multiple sectors and organizations work together to create and implement unified violence prevention, risk mitigation and response strategies.
Therefore, the Regional Subsector of Gender Violence facilitates the coordination and implementation of gender violence programming in the 17 RMRP countries, it leads the construction of synergies and coordination with other sectors (through coalitions), training and awareness, strategic planning and monitoring and evaluation. The Subsector was established in 2018 and operates alongside other subsectors under the Protection Sector.
The Subsector has the following objectives:
• Strengthen coordination at the national level to ensure that multiple sectors and organizations work together to create and implement unified risk prevention, response and mitigation strategies,
• Promote access to and the importance of specialized multisectoral GBV services for refugee and migrant survivors from Venezuela in humanitarian response,
• Develop informed advocacy activities that positively influence the policies of governments and humanitarian actors (including the United Nations, NGOs and CSOs) to prevent and mitigate gender-based violence and respond to the specific needs of survivors of gender violence that come from Venezuela.
• Promote the improvement of the safety, dignity and well-being of groups at risk of suffering gender violence through the imposition of measures to mitigate the risk of gender violence and empower women and girls
