CARE's RELAY! Gender-Based Violence (GBV) Challenge will surface and scale proven approaches to understand, prevent, and respond to gender based violence (GBV) in emergencies, focusing on vulnerable women and girls (including refugees, migrants, and displaced persons) in the Middle East and North Africa.
To prepare your application for submission, please consider following Guideline and Workbook instruction. The workbook is separated by country and into country-identified GBV issues:
EGYPT - SEXUAL HARASSMENT
IRAQ - UNEQUAL ACCESS TO FINANCIAL RESOURCES
JORDAN - EARLY MARRIAGE
NORTH SYRIA - DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
TURKEY - SERVICE AND AWARENESS
GBV varies in expression across settings and is experienced differently by women and girls in different contexts. To account for this, the CARE country office in each of the five focus countries have created Challenge Briefs that characterize their country context and define the specific manifestation of GBV that each country office is seeking to address. When submitting an application, an entrant must identify the Challenge Brief their approach addresses.
