Regional initiative on supporting multi-sectorial, coordinated response to gender-based violence


UNFPA Eastern Europe and Central Asia Regional Office has introduced a regional initiative on supporting the multi-sectorial, coordinated response to gender-based violence (GBV). Its overall goal is to strengthen the Country Offices’ capacity for comprehensive response to and prevention of GBV through:
(1) technical assistance for existing models of responses to GBV applied by different countries, and
(2) support to the Country Offices to contextualize the approaches.


The results of the survey will serve as a basis to support the development and implementation of the specific activities of the regional initiative, which will be tailored to the country specific needs. The survey will be followed by the development of an intervention and referral package on multi-sectorial response to GBV which will include:
a) a generic inter-sectorial intervention and referral model for addressing GBV in order to ensure protection of victim’s rights and multi-sectorial case management coordination,
b) sectorial standard operating procedures for intervention of first line providers (health, law enforcement, psycho-social services), and
c) principles, terminology and a set of indicators for an integrated information system for recording, monitoring and reporting GBV cases.


Starting with 2015, the East European Institute for Reproductive Health (EEIRH), as Implementing Partner of UNFPA EECA RO, will design regional capacity development workshops for multi-sectorial actors from governmental institutions, national organizations, community, and international agencies and donors. The workshops will address the intervention and referral package, as well as the development and organizing of activities to increase awareness on GBV. Country-level interventions will be also implemented to promote and strengthen the inter-institutional partnerships to ensure coordination and sustainable development in the area of GBV.


Objective


The first step is the mapping of the current situation on multi-sectorial response to GBV in the countries of Eastern Europe and Central Asia, with the objective to provide better understanding of the current approaches, institutional frameworks and practices in GBV.


Methodology


The survey uses an online questionnaire collecting quantitative and qualitative data. The questionnaire is send to all Country Offices in the UNFPA EECA region and should be completed by the GBV focal point in the UNFPA Country Office, or by another staff member designated by the head of office.

Some questions have a rounded question mark sign next to them. Clicking on it will provide additional clarifications related to those questions. For any other questions or clarifications please contact Ionela Horga, EEIRH Expert Coordinator at [email protected], or Aida Ghazaryan, UNFPA Programme Specialist on Gender at [email protected]. 


Deadline


The deadline for completing the questionnaire is 12 September 2014.

Sexual abuse/violence: any sexual act, attempt to obtain a sexual act, unwanted sexual comments or advances, or acts to traffic, or otherwise directed, against a person’s sexuality using coercion, by any person regardless of their relationship to the victim, in any setting, including but not limited to home and work (WHO, World report on violence and health).
Rape/rape attempt: physically forced or otherwise coerced penetration – even if slight – of the vulva or anus, using a penis, other body parts or an object. The attempt to do so is known as attempted rape (WHO, World report on violence and health).
Sexual exploitation: any actual or attempted abuse of a position of vulnerability, differential power, or trust, for sexual purposes, including, but not limited to, profiting monetarily, socially or politically from the sexual exploitation of another (UN Secretary-General’s Bulletin on protection from sexual exploitation and abuse (PSEA) (ST/SGB/2003/13).
Early marriage: formal marriage or informal union under the age of legal consent is a reality for both boys and girls, although girls are disproportionately the most affected (UNICEF, Child marriage, 2012).
Domestic violence/Intimate partner violence: all acts of physical, sexual, psychological or economic violence that may be committed at home or in a public place by a person who is a family member or a person that has been an intimate partner or spouse or ex-partner, irrespective of whether they lived together (Council of Europe, Convention on preventing and combating violence against women and domestic violence, CETS No. 210).
Traffic of human beings: the recruitment, transportation, transfer, harbouring or receipt of persons, by means of the threat or use of force or other forms of coercion, of abduction, of fraud, of deception, of the abuse of power or of a position of vulnerability or of the giving or receiving of payments or benefits to achieve the consent of a person having control over another person, for the purpose of exploitation. Exploitation shall include, at a minimum, the exploitation of the prostitution of others or other forms of sexual exploitation, forced labour or services, slavery or practices similar to slavery, servitude or the removal of organs (Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons contributing to United Nations Convention against Transnational Organized Crime).
Female genital cutting: all procedures involving partial or total removal of the external female genitalia or other injury to the female genital organs for non-medical reasons (UNICEF, Female genital mutilation/cutting, 2013).
Other forms: restricted or limited access to education, infanticide and/or neglect, forced marriage, gender selective abortion, discrimination and/or denial of opportunities, services, etc.

Multi-sectorial response to GBV includes:
- Providing services and support connected between institutions, aiming to reduce the consequences and to prevent further incident/harm
- Reporting and referral system
- Training for all professionals, from all sectors, at all levels
- Documentation of reported incidents, data analysis, monitoring and evaluation
- Coordination and information sharing systems among the institutions
The multi-sectorial response to GBV may be a formal mechanism or not, implemented at country or local level. It is different from the multi-sectorial coordination mechanism. Synonyms may include ”integrated approach”, “multi-sectorial”, “multi-disciplinary”, “inter-sectorial”, “inter-institutional”.

General services cater to a range of needs, for example all victims of crime, all people with health problems, all aggressors. While victims of GBV may access general services, their specific needs are not systematically addressed or supported. In case of victims, general services include homeless shelters, family shelters, mother and child homes, general advice centres and helplines (European Institute for Gender Equality, Review of the Implementation of the Beijing Platform for Action in the EU Member States: Violence against Women - Victim Support, 2012).
