The purpose of this gap analysis is quite straightforward: attempt to identify the difference between the actual state and the minimum standards for GBV in emergencies. Once gaps are identified; organizations have agreed on corrective actions that need to be taken. The first gap analysis was conducted in 2018 and then updated in 2019. The second GBV gap analysis workshop was held in January 2020. In November 2022 a new analysis was launched with a total of 30 persons from 18 organizations (3 UN Agencies, 2 local NGOs and 13 INGOs).
Participants included both field staff as well as staff with national responsibilities.
They were divided in groups covering the following locations:
● Amman/Balqa/Zarqa/South
● Irbid - Mafraq
● Zatari camp
● Azraq camp
Each group reviewed a list of minimum standards in the following fields:
● GBV case management and psycho-social support
● GBV prevention activities
● Health services for GBV survivors
● Shelter/ Cash/ Livelihoods for GBV survivors
● Legal, justice and law enforcement
For each standard, the group determined whether it was met or not and for those unmet standards, the groups identified if it was due to a barrier faced by survivors in accessing this specific type of service or to a gap in service provision. In addition, each group looked at how barriers or gaps could differently affect certain groups (male/female, children/adults, persons with disabilities and marginalized groups). The GBV WG coordinators at sub national level including Zatari, Azraq, Irbid and Mafraq co-facilitated the discussion. Moreover, the gap analysis was facilitated in each of the 4 field locations where the GBV WG is existent to ensure participation of field staff and affected population in identifying gaps and way forward.
Members of the GBV sub working group were given an opportunity to comment on the draft report and further highlight gaps. Final report and Recommendations were endorsed by the GBV SWG in June 2023. This gap analysis is complemented by the information provided by the GBV IMS annual report.
