The reduction of resources will negatively affect the capacity to extend full quality support to SGBV survivors across all camps. 700, out of planned total of 1,000, SGBV survivors will receive appropriate support. The participatory assessment, that was carried out in 2016, found that women and girls continue to underreport SGBV incidences. Increased staffing dedicated to SGBV prevention and response will be required to work in the communities, with the aim of building trust and providing timely and quality response, as well as providing follow-up as part of enhanced case management. Reduced resources will impede on the provision of effective and quality multi-sectoral response services.
Limited funding will also impact the capacity of partners to adequately deliver services, including capacity-building of clinical staff; providing support to improve access to justice through the provision of mobile courts or better access to existing courts as well as the standardization of informal mediation processes; and the building of additional safe houses in the camp. Increased staffing for partners conducting case management, an essential part of psychosocial counselling, will continue to be a priority for 2017.
Limited funding will also have a negative impact on the capacity to expand the preventive component, such as increasing awareness and capacity building of communities as well as engaging men and boys through the Engagement of Men in Accountable Practices (EMAP) programme that will be initiated in 2016.
