Regional study
Our right to safety: Placing forcibly displaced women at the center of searching solutions to address gender-based violence.
The findings of the assessment confirm that GBV is a risk and a problem that is causing harm through the forced displacement or human mobility dynamics in the countries of origin, transit and destination. The region of Latin American continues to show significant gender inequalities, leading to risks in various private and public contexts: domestic, community, workplace and institutional. The assessment demonstrates how on many occasions GBV is not identified as a priority problem by refugee women, given the endless needs they are facing (starting with the urgency to cover their basic needs).
