Share a new Portuguese translation of Pathfinder’s technical brief: Multisectoral Responses to Gender-based Violence in Mozambique:  http://www.pathfinder.org/publications-tools/resposta-multissectorial-violencia-em-mocambique.html

This technical brief explores Pathfinder’s experience pioneering a multisectoral approach to primary and secondary prevention of GBV across two projects in Mozambique: (1) the “Enhancing Reproductive Rights to  Reduce Violence against Women in Gaza Province” project (2010–2013), funded by the UN Trust Fund to End Violence against Women; and (2) the “Enhancing Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights of Women and Youth in Mozambique: Integrating Comprehensive GBV Services and Support and Safe Abortion Care in Inhambane and Gaza Provinces” project (2011–2013), funded by the Royal Norwegian Embassy.

The projects’ multisectoral approach included: a robust primary prevention component that engaged community organizations, activists, judges, and youth in reflection and dialogue to transform gender norms; a secondary prevention component that built on nascent national efforts to establish a multisectoral response to GBV (including establishment of the country’s first one-stop center for GBV survivors); and a strong advocacy component. The technical brief highlights implementation experience, lessons learned, and next steps for Pathfinder’s GBV programming in Mozambique.
