Through the UN Action Against Sexual Violence in Conflict-funded project UNA022 (2012-2016), partners contributed to strengthening knowledge, guidance and technical capacity on the Gender-Based Violence Information Management System (GBVIMS), helping humanitarian actors improve the safe, ethical and survivor-centred collection, management and use of gender-based violence (GBV) data in crisis-affected settings.
The resources available on this page bring together practical guidance, training tools and technical notes developed by UNFPA, UNICEF, UNHCR, WHO and partners to support GBV practitioners, service providers, coordinators, government counterparts and information management specialists.
Together, they promote stronger data protection practices, better service coordination, responsible information sharing and improved analysis of GBV trends to inform humanitarian programming and policy. Several resources also address emerging challenges at the intersection of GBV information management, government engagement, conflict-related sexual violence monitoring, and ethical data sharing, contributing to broader efforts to prevent and respond to sexual violence in humanitarian and conflict settings.
