GBV AoR

The Gender-Based Violence Area of Responsibility (GBV AoR) in the State of Palestine led by UNFPA was activated in 2014. The GBV AoR convenes over 110 national and international organizations, women-led organizations, and government entities to coordinate the GBV prevention and response intervention in the context of Palestine.

The GBV AoR aims, in collaboration with the relevant government ministries, UN agencies, and local and international NGOs, to consolidate, coordinate, improve support, and develop activities of all relevant stakeholders in the prevention of and response to GBV. 

The GBV AoR in the State of Palestine has developed specific Terms of Reference (ToR) defining its roles, operational modalities, and responsibilities aiming to strengthen the collective response to GBV. The document has been endorsed by members.
