These GBV Standard Operating Procedures (GBV SOPs) have been developed to facilitate collaborative action to address GBV in Sudan. These GBV SOPs will be updated every year so as to reflect changes in the context and needs.
These GBV SOPs provide the guiding principles, describe the procedures, roles and responsibilities for each actor involved in the response, mitigation and prevention of GBV. They are designed for actors to be able to hold each other accountable for addressing the needs of GBV survivors, to be used with established guidelines and other good practice materials related to addressing GBV.
These Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for the prevention of and response to GBV represent an essential development to ensure the delivery of an integrated and high-quality system of services for survivors of GBV. At the same time, they adhere to the international best practice of preventing and responding to GBV to ensure the protection of women, girls, and children and safeguard their rights in cooperation with all partners in roles and responsibilities.
