Challenges in Combating Gender-Based Violence in 2024
Combating gender-based violence in 2024 involves addressing root causes like gender inequality, overcoming global challenges in conflict zones, closing policy gaps, and enhancing support systems for survivors.
Support systems, including shelters, helplines, and counseling services, are vital for survivors of GBV. These services provide immediate assistance and long-term support, helping survivors rebuild their lives. However, there is often a chronic lack of resources and infrastructure to support these services, particularly in conflict-affected areas. Investing in and expanding these support systems is essential to effectively combat GBV and support survivors.
