Introduction

The ongoing war in Ukraine has exacerbated Gender-Based Violence (GBV), including conflict related sexual violence, domestic violence, intimate partner violence, and other forms of violence. Health services are vital for identification and addressing the immediate and long-term needs of GBV survivors. By adopting best practices, addressing barriers, and fostering interdisciplinary collaboration, healthcare systems can play a pivotal role in restoring the dignity and well-being of survivors.
