Gender Based Violence Area of Responsibility
About
In 2005 the IASC cluster approach was introduced as a means of more effectively coordinating humanitarian response. The GBV AoR works collectively to improve the effectiveness and accountability of humanitarian response for the prevention, risk mitigation and response to all forms of gender-based violence, to ensure that the agency and capacity of survivors is recognised and reinforced and that primary prevention efforts are effectively employed to address underlying gender inequality. There is increasing effort, particularly in protracted crisis, being made to work with development actors (nexus) and to work on preparedness especially in regions that are affected by natural disasters. The GBV AoR Coordination Team sits in Geneva and provides global level coordination for GBV. The aim of the GBV AoR is to provide support to the GBV Coordinators in activated cluster and cluster like structures in field offices.
