Raising communities’ awareness on women’s rights and assistance to survivors of sexualised and gender-based violence in South East Liberia
After 14 devastating years of civil war in Liberia, the level of sexualised and gender-based violence (S/GBV) in Liberia remains high. Survivors of S/GBV face a high risk of stigmatization, discouraging them from reporting their cases to authorities. Since 2005, the Reintegration and Recovery Programme (RRP) assists women and girls affected by S/GBV and their communities. The holistic approach includes psychosocial, health and legal services as well as income- generating activities for survivors and campaigns to sensitize state actors.
