Women's Protection And Empowerment

Esther and Dalia visit the health cluster coordinator to discuss trends they’ve noticed in survivors refusing referrals to healthcare services. Together with the health cluster coordinator, they identify barriers preventing easy access to health care facilities. In this episode, the focus is on Standard 7 of The Inter-Agency Minimum Standards for Gender-Based Violence in Emergencies Programming, that “Referral systems are in place to connect GBV survivors to appropriate, quality, multisectoral services in a timely, safe and confidential manner.” The Gender-Based Violence Minimum Standards Mini-Series is presented by International Rescue Committee, and hosted on the Women’s Protection and Empowerment podcast.
