This resource summarises the pivotal role played by refugee women-led organisations (WLOs) in preventing and responding to gender-based violence (GBV). It also examines the systemic barriers WLOs face, in relation to registration, legal recognition, stigma, funding, and gaining meaningful access to decision-making spaces.
The resource aimed to support specific and actionable pledges made at the Global Refugee Forum 2023. The insights are based on interviews with refugee WLOs in Kenya, Ukraine, South Sudan, Rwanda, Romania and Jordan, global organisations supporting refugee WLOs, and refugee leaders working with refugee women and youth networks. It also draws on a rapid desk review of available evidence.
