This curriculum guide presents the information needed to run an introductory course on sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) issues and programmatic interventions in
humanitarian emergency response.

It contains the sample agenda, training modules and tools to provide a two and a halfday course (which can be amended to a longer course or a training of trainer module
if needed). The target audience is the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) and National Society programme managers (health, disaster
management, community services, etc.) and gender and diversity focal persons. It will help the target audience to integrate SGBV interventions into all areas of work with an
emphasis on emergencies. The course has been developed as one of the actions set out in the Resolution on Sexual and Gender-based Violence passed by the 32nd International
Conference in 2015.

If you intend to run this training, you will need to access the powerpoint slides and additional materials - to access these, please contact [email protected]

Based on qualitative information collected from primary and secondary sources, this case study looks at gender equality in laws and policies and the issue of sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) in the context of disasters in Ecuador. It focuses on the earthquake of April 16, 2016, that profoundly affected the coastal provinces of Manabí and Esmeraldas. The report examines the scope and effectiveness of laws and policies related to the prevention, response and sanctioning of SGBV, both in normal times and during disasters, as well as the gender-sensitivity of national policies for disaster risk management.

Guidelines for frontline staff in transit-reception centres for migrants and people on the move to mitigate and respond to SGBV.
