Learn the Facts of Gender-Based Violence, including domestic, family and sexual violence. Understand that during times of crisis and displacement, (such as humanitarian, climate-related and the COVID-19 pandemic), women and girls are disproportionately impacted by Gender-Based Violence within the public and private spheres. This can be physical, financial, spiritual, emotional or mental abuse, which includes threats of violence and abuse to women and girls as well as to their loved ones or pets.
Understand other forms of GBV such as non-consensual on-line sexting of pornography, stalking, Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) and so called ‘honour killings’: https://www.unhcr.org/en-au/gender-based-violence.html
