Enabel is actively working to
contribute to end Gender-Based Violence in seven districts of Rwanda through "Barame" health project focusing on maternal, neonatal, child, adolescent, sexual and reproductive health.
The objective is to offer quality
services and management to victims of GBV at the right place and at the right
time.
To achieve this, the project is training medical staff, renovating "Isange" One Stop Centers (IOSC) and providing relevant medical equipment.
So far, 43
staff of IOSCs and 81 other staff from hospitals including medical doctors,
nurses, midwives, social workers and psychologists have been trained on
gender-based violence case management.
In addition, 6 IOSCs have been
renovated and medical equipment (such as ultrasounds) has been provided.
Moreover, to offer services closer
to the population, the project works on the extension of GBV services at health
center level, as recommended by the 4th Health Sector Strategic
Plan.
Up to now, 235 staff of health centers have been trained on GBV case
management, including community and environmental health officers, nurses,
social workers and mental health professional.
