Gender Based Violence (GBV) is an alarming concern in Cabo Delgado. Women and girls are at risk of multiple forms of GBV before, during and after displacement.
UNHCR works with displaced and host communities, partners, and local authorities to respond to and prevent GBV in Northern Mozambique.
During the 16 days of Activism Against GBV, UNHCR and partners reached over 750 people with multiple GBV awareness raising activities.
