Continue to lead the development of a qualified EVAW workforce in the Pacific through scaling up gender transformative, rights-based training for relevant institutions, sectors and countries, using tested methods and resources. Explore synergies with sector wide approaches (for example in Justice) to increase impact. Regional Training Agree This is in place for the law enforcement sector. Opportunities for extension to other sectors to be addressed during Phase 6 design and implementation. FWCC Increase the pool of Pacific experts able to deliver and implement the expansion of rights training and accelerated Training of Trainers. Clarify the role, strategy, structure, resources of Feminist Learning, Advocacy & Research and Empowerment (FLARE) and develop an accompanying implementation plan to ensure it achieves its goals and avoids duplication with FWCC’s other efforts. Regional Training Agree DFAT and FWCC to address this during Phase 6 design and implementation. FWCC
Develop a terms of reference and plan for the Pacific Network Against Violence Against Women (PNAVAW) that specifies the roles and responsibilities of members and the Secretariat, goals and outcomes, milestones, human and financial resourcing requirements, membership benefits and strategies for engagement throughout the Pacific. Regional networking and support Agree DFAT and FWCC to address this during Phase 6 design and implementation. FWCC Prepare a strategy for engaging with and providing support to regional organisations that clearly enables an assessment of benefits and risks (a program investment decision matrix) and mutual accountability, to support more efficient use of human and financial resources. Establishing a ‘package’ of member support services, and the costs (varied by country), could enhance efficiency and facilitate robust testing and demonstration of the approaches and tools. Regional networking and support Partially Agree. Clearer definition of selection criteria and prioritisation of provision of operational support to regional organisations is needed. Further discussion on the establishment of a costed ‘package’ of services is suggested. DFAT and FWCC to address this during Phase 6 design and implementation. DFAT notes work is underway on costing services for EVAW through the PIFS Special Reference Group on EVAW that FWCC Chairs. FWCC
Develop process guidelines and an accompanying resource kit for the development of, and appropriate rights-based EVAW services. Use the guidelines to support practice quality and monitoring, and to inform on initiating Managing Agent relationships. Regional networking and support Partially Agree. Establishing EVAW practice standards could be and requires and ownership from a range of stakeholders including national governments and institutions. DFAT and FWCC to address this during Phase 6 design and implementation. [There may be synergies with UN Women’s toolkit for EVAW programming and Fiji’s Taskforce on EVAW]. FWCC Invest in Branch capacity development through establishing tailored capacity development plans and Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) frameworks that reflect differences in capability and context (locally available resources, priorities, constraints, and partners). Regional networking and support Agree DFAT, MFAT and FWCC to address this during Phase 6 design and implementation. FWCC
Undertake annual Branch-based participatory planning, in partnership with local stakeholders, to promote more active engagement, stronger partnerships, and improved accountability and outcomes. Branch/organisational capacity building Agree DFAT, MFAT and FWCC to address this during Phase 6 design and implementation. FWCC Continue to participate, provide leadership and human rights expertise in the Fiji Inter-Agency Taskforce on the Elimination of Violence Against Women and Children and the Pacific Islands Forum Reference Group to Address Sexual and Gender Based Violence, including in the development of the Fiji national EVAW Policy and the Service Protocol for victims of violence committed against women and children. Branch/organisational capacity building Agree FWCC is already in this role. FWCC
Disseminate FWCC’s major VAW prevalence study, Somebody’s Life, Everybody’s Business, more widely and develop tailored information, education and communication materials for use with specific audiences. Branch/organisational capacity building Agree DFAT and FWCC to address this during Phase 6 design and implementation. FWCC needs to prepare target audience briefs and other relevant communications and training materials. FWCC Harmonise FWCC’s M&E system so that it better links data on outputs to progress toward intended outcomes and impact. Ensure that the system is user-friendly and designed to routinely provide robust information to Project Officers and senior managers on issues of strategic relevance and learning, and agreed standards of achievement of program outcomes. Branch/organisational capacity building Agree DFAT, MFAT and FWCC to address this during Phase 6 design and implementation. FWCC
