Eliminating all Forms of Gender Based Violence in Afghan and Host Communities – Phase II

BRSP in collaboration with International Organization for Migration (IOM), implemented the “Supporting Afghan Citizen Card (ACC) Holders and Undocumented Afghans in Gender-Based Violence (GBV) Prevention and Response in Balochistan Province” initiative. The project focused on enhancing protection for Afghan migrants. By improving access to specialized GBV services and bolstering community-level protection capacities, the project aimed to create a safer environment for vulnerable populations.

Key activities included mapping protection risks, strengthening referral mechanisms, provided GBV case management services, trained Community Outreach Volunteers (COVs), and developed community action plans. The project also emphasized establishing feedback mechanisms and raised awareness through sessions and coordination with GBV network agencies. With dedicated efforts to integrate these practices into local frameworks, the initiative strived to support GBV survivors through Women and Girls Friendly Spaces (WGFS) and strengthen community resilience, leading to reduced GBV incidents and improved socio-economic well-being.
