Sexual and other forms of gender-based violence crises
Sexual and other forms of gender-based violence are increasingly reported in situations of complex emergencies (e.g. involving political instability and armed conflict in Africa). The term “sexual and other forms of gender-based violence” comprises not only rape and attempted rape, but also sexual abuse, sexual exploitation, forced early marriage, domestic violence, marital rape, trafficking and female genital mutilation.
These acts of violence can lead to serious consequences to physical and psychological health and social well-being. Juhudi Africa Programme is working to strengthen institutions in Africa and health sector’s response to SGBV as part of a comprehensive approach to prevention of and response to this health and human rights concern.
