Women for Afghan Women implemented a three-year project, “Prevention and Response to Gender-Based Violence in Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) and Returnee Communities (PARGIRC)”, with the support of the UN Trust Fund. The project aimed to improve access of vulnerable populations to essential, safe and adequate multi-sectorial services. The final evaluation found that the project raised awareness about gender-based violence and helped survivors to access legal assistance and psychotherapy.

The project “Promoting Justice for Survivors of Gender-Based Violence in China”, implemented by Equality in collaboration with Common Language, Women’s Network Against AIDS-China and Media Monitor for Women Network, was funded from January 2016 to December 2017 by the UN Trust Fund to End Violence against Women. The final evaluation found the project had successfully leveraged a network of NGOs to tackle domestic violence faced by women and girls, including lesbian, bisexual and transgender women; and those impacted by HIV/AIDS.

The UN Trust Fund to End Violence against Women provided funding for “Women’s Empowerment in Afghanistan and Tajikistan for Displaced Persons through Legal Aid and Training to Combat Violence against Women” initiative from January 2013 – November 2015. The evaluation found the most significant change to be the increasing awareness of women’s rights and SBGV in Afghanistan.
