Countering Gender Based Violence

 

CEA addressed the gender based violence in all its various forms. Gender-based violence (GBV) mainly plagues girls and women in Kenya and is a  threat to them regardless of their age, or socioeconomic status. And they are at risk everywhere and anywhere — at work, at school, and at home.

In addressing GBV CEA intervenes in the following ways:

  • Providing GBV prevention sensitization focused on likely victims and perpetrators
  • Addressing cultural and gender norms that perpetuate GBV
  • Post GBV counselling
  • Referral to appropriate care institutions
