GBV Safety Audit
The 2023 Safety Audit aimed at identifying GBV risks and their impact on different groups both among refugees and in the host community, with a particular focus on the experiences of women and girls. Using a participatory approach, the safety audit involved refugees, members of the host community, organizations working with refugees and service providers in order to gain a comprehensive understanding of GBV risks, response needs, as well as to identify gaps and barriers in accessing GBV support services. Following a community-based approach and line with an Age, Gender and Diversity perspective, the GBV Safety Audit is designed to facilitate and amplify the shared responsibility across sectors to address and mitigate GBV risks.

Comprehensive sexuality education for out of school young people
The Comprehensive Sexuality Education for Out of School Young People in East and Southern Africa manual is based on the following assumptions:
• Young people can learn to be safe. They can learn how to avoid unplanned pregnancies and sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including HIV.
• They can achieve this by choosing to abstain from sex for moral, religious, ethical or health reasons or by using condoms consistently and correctly. They can combine condoms with other methods of contraception for extra protection against pregnancy.
• Young people who know their rights and responsibilities and who believe in gender equality have better sexual health outcomes than their peers.
• Young people can learn to make good choices if they have complete factual information, healthy attitudes and good decision-making, communication and planning skills.
Using this manual, trained facilitators, including experienced youth leaders, can help young people to gain the knowledge, attitudes and skills they need to make healthy decisions and to communicate their choices clearly. The manual uses interactive, participatory activities to help young people gain new information and skills. Existing programmes for young people can incorporate any or all of the activities included here into their on-going activities.

Making all spaces safe: Technology-facilitated gender based violence
As the world continues to evolve and expand in the use of technology and platforms, so too does the expansion of spaces through which violence can be perpetrated. This was evidenced no more so than during the COVID-19 pandemic where containment efforts reduced access to information and services driving increased use of technology and online spaces.

A moldovan case study: empowering parents and caregivers through gender-responsive family policies
In the Republic of Moldova, the unequal distribution of unpaid care work limits women’s full participation in the labour force. As of 2012, World Bank data showed that women in the Republic of Moldova were spending a fifth of their day on unpaid domestic and care work, nearly double the 11.3 per cent of their day that men dedicated to these tasks.¹ This disparity hampers women’s opportunities to engage in full-time or higher-paying jobs.
