Gender-based violence is widespread and young people, uneducated and unemployed, are being radicalised by insurgent groups.

Together with our partners, UNFPA provides survivors with medical, reproductive health services and/or psychosocial care as part of our commitment to rehabilitate women and girls who have been abused and help them overcome their ordeal.

With the Gender-Based Violence Information Management System (GBVIMS), officially set up in 2014 by UNFPA and other partners, we now accurately record the numbers of gender-based violence incidents and implement appropriate responses.
