Published purpose

February 2022 - During conflicts, natural disasters and other complex emergencies, sexual and reproductive health (SRH) needs must not be overlooked. It is essential to ensure that life-saving interventions related to SRH services and protection from and response to sexual and gender-based violence are provided. With GAC’s support, the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) is contributing to meeting the sexual and reproductive health and safety needs of vulnerable women and girls. The project operates in Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, Yemen, and Syria. Project activities include: (1) providing emergency obstetric care, and sexual and reproductive health services; (2) ensuring protection from and response to gender-based violence; and (3) providing health services, supplies, commodities and medication, dignity kits, and reproductive health kits to crisis-affected people.
