This GBV Minimum Standards aims to enhance accountability among GBV-specialized actors, improve programme quality, and guard against practices that may cause harm (e.g., put survivors or others at risk). Through the standards, the global GBV Area of Responsibility aims to provide GBV programme actors with practical guidance to ensure effective action on GBV prevention and response in humanitarian settings. The standards emphasize that women and girls are key actors in their own protection and must be active partners in identifying protection risks and solutions throughout the programme cycle. Engagement of women and girls is critical to establishing quality GBV response services. As such, women’s and girls’ participation from the onset of an emergency will result in better humanitarian outcomes.
This resource is designed to be useful for all GBV practitioners, including those who have limited experience in implementing GBV programming.
