Women's Protection And Empowerment

Dalia has been working with the same survivor who came in earlier and who is experiencing ongoing intimate partner violence. Dalia feels conflicted - she wants the survivor to pursue legal aid, but the survivor declined the referral. She confides in Ashanti who gives her advice on referrals, mediation, and survivor-centered care. In this episode, the focus is on Standard 10 of The Inter-Agency Minimum Standards for Gender-Based Violence in Emergencies Programming, that “Legal and justice actors support GBV survivors to access safe and survivor-centred legal services that protect their rights and promote their access to justice.” The Gender-Based Violence Minimum Standards Mini-Series is presented by International Rescue Committee, and hosted on the Women’s Protection and Empowerment podcast. This podcast is made possible by the generous support of the American people through the United States Agency for International Development (USAID).
