'A practical approach to gender-based violence: a programme guide for health care providers and managers' developed by the UN Population Fund.
Gender-based violence (GBV) is a worldwide problem that can have serious physical and psychological consequences. Women need to be assessed for GBV and a logical place to do so would be where women go for health care, reproductive health facilities. The United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) has developed 'A Practical Approach to Gender-Based Violence: A Program Guide for Health Care Providers and Managers' to assist reproductive health facilities in integrating GBV into their programs. This article briefly describes the project options and the steps that need to be taken in order to implement such projects.
