Purpose

This project aims to improve equality, enjoyment of human rights, and freedom from sexual and gender-based violence for women and girls in Kiribati, Solomon Islands and Tonga. The Project seeks to increase inclusive and gender-responsive promotion and protection of women and girls’ right to live free from sexual and gender-based violence. The project targets approximately 441,000 Indigenous women and girls, especially during frequent and climate-induced extreme weather events. It aims to increase accountability and transparency of governments through training and mentoring (132 representatives from key government ministries and agencies) and capacity building of intermediaries (285 representatives from civil society organizations, women’s rights organizations and local community and religious leaders) to delivery more inclusive and gender-responsive sexual and gender-based violence-related public services for women and girls, particularly sexual and gender-based violence survivors, including during and after extreme weather events.
