Gender-based violence (GBV) is a pervasive issue affecting communities worldwide, undermining the health, dignity, security, and autonomy of its victims. This proposal aims to address GBV through community-led programs that empower local leaders, engage stakeholders, and foster a culture of non-violence and respect.
By implementing comprehensive strategies involving education, advocacy, support services, and legal assistance, this initiative seeks to create a safer environment for all, particularly women and girls.
Background and Rationale:
GBV remains a significant barrier to achieving gender equality and overall community well-being. It encompasses various forms of abuse, including physical, sexual, emotional, and economic violence. The impacts of GBV are far-reaching, affecting not only the survivors but also their families and communities.
Addressing GBV through community-led programs ensures that solutions are culturally appropriate, sustainable, and have a greater likelihood of success.
