Provision of life saving GBV services and livelihood opportunities for most vulnerable women and girls in Qaatabah of Al-Dhalae and Maqbanah of Taiz governorate - Pillar 1- under both Aden and Ibb hub ltpgtDeem for Development Organization is gearing up to embark on a specialized project that seeks to tackle the pervasive issue of gender-based violence (GBV) in two specific districts of Yemen - Maqbanah of Taiz governorate and Qaatabah of Al-Dhalae governorate. Rooted in an in-depth needs assessment and gaps analysis, this initiative is crafted to not just complement but expand the existing measures, directly addressing the unique needs of these high-priority districts.ltbrgtlt/pgtltdiv style="" class=""gtltdiv style="" class=""gtltdiv class="" style=""gtltpgtThe main thrust of our intervention focuses on implementing a robust mix of prevention and response activities. Our key objective is to bolster GBV response mechanisms, proactively prevent violence, and lessen GBV risks in these districts. To this end, we are dedicated to sustaining and revitalizing service points that provide essential GBV services, with a particular emphasis on areas marked by high vulnerability, acute severity indices, and a large influx of internally displaced persons (IDPs).lt/pgtltpgtA central part of our strategy involves the establishment of four Women and Girls Safe Spaces (WGSS), with two in each district, one under IRG control and another under AA control. These sanctuaries are designed to offer a refuge where women and girls, especially those displaced, can access essential services, forge and strengthen social bonds, receive much-needed social support, and develop skills that are relevant and useful in their context. Beyond these, they also serve as centers for livelihood support, providing avenues for economic empowerment and self-sustenance.lt/pgtltpgtTo guarantee the effectiveness and longevity of our initiatives, we have assigned funds for crucial operational costs, such as rent, stationery, utilities, and other essentials. Emphasizing empowerment, we will offer life skills and vocational training, supplemented by grants that aim to enhance the resilience and independence of women.lt/pgtltpgtIn line with our multi-sectorial response, we are joining forces with humanitarian organizations like QRCs, MEDAIR, and Mercy Corps to provide a comprehensive suite of support services, covering health, food, legal, and psychological areas. Additionally, we will align our protection, shelter, and CCCM activities with those supported by UNHCR, particularly in areas under de facto authorities. At the helm of these operations are our case management officers, who are dedicated to ensuring optimal support for our beneficiaries.lt/pgtltpgtBy standing at the forefront of protection, prevention, and resilience, this project aims to sustain and build upon the ongoing services in the selected locations, battling GBV under challenging circumstances. More than that, we aim to nurture the capacities of local communities and women and girls in these districts, fostering an environment of safety, empowerment, and growth. The success of this project will mark a significant stride in our unyielding pursuit to combat GBV and transform lives.lt/pgtltpgtLocations and activities of this project:ltbrgtlt/pgtlt/divgtlt/divgtlt/divgt
