Sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) refers to any act that is perpetrated against a person’s will and is based on gender norms and unequal power relationships.
It encompasses threats of violence and coercion. It can be physical, emotional, psychological, or sexual in nature, and can take the form of a denial of resources or access to services. It inflicts harm on women, girls, men and boys. Many cases of SGBV are rarely handled to their rightful conclusion in the camp and many cases end up being negotiated out of courts which makes a mockery of justice and fans the vice. It then becomes a vicious cycle in which many victims fail to get justice.
Due to desperation and not knowing who to turn to in such situations, both the humanitarian staff, and the refugees find themselves in between a rock and a hard place. Coupled by the fact that refugees endure extreme hardships in the camp against a back ground of civil wars, broken family structures, sexual and gender based violence among many other problems, many end up compromising and end up being taken advantage of.
It is against this back ground that Safe Haven Programme wishes to organize this training to empower the staff and other vulnerable brothers and sisters, especially SGBV survivors to equip them with necessary skills that will help them stand up for their rights and enable them handle such situations appropriately.
Goal
The goal of this consultancy training is to empower JRS staff in Kakuma Refugee Camp to focus on timely prevention corruption and fraud in SGBV related cases within the humanitarian set up.
