Safety assessments are being conducted with a focus on violence, particularly gender-based violence. These assessments recognize that violence against women, girls, and other vulnerable individuals occurs in all societies and contexts, including displacement situations. Such violence often goes unreported due to barriers like fear, stigma, and limited access to services.
The assessments aim to identify and reduce risks within specific spheres of activity, based on the needs and experiences of affected communities. They do not seek to document or investigate individual incidents. Further details on these safety assessments are available, including the role of global experience in informing the approach to addressing violence in various contexts.
