This webinar will offer Spanish and International Sign Language interpretation. Find the information below in Spanish here.

The session will explore how social protection instruments, particularly cash and voucher assistance, can be used to manage and support cases of GBV in humanitarian and human mobility contexts. Speakers will discuss evidence of how cash and voucher assistance can help mitigate GBV risks as well as support survivors of GBV to transition into more resilient livelihoods, illustrating this with examples from the field in two different regions. The discussion will also explore the relevance for cash and voucher assistance for GBV survivors to be linked to complementary social protection mechanism and/or systems in these contexts.

The session will be framed as a conversation amongst the four speakers on the basis of following questions:

  • What has been the evolution of the use of cash and voucher assistance for GBV response and mitigation in humanitarian contexts?

  • What is the evidence to date on cash and voucher assistance to respond to and mitigate for GBV in humanitarian and displacement/migration/refugee contexts?

  • What are the good practice/challenges in this sector?  

  • How is it possible and what are the challenges to build effective linkages to social protection mechanisms, referral pathways and other key services? Are there foundations being laid for an eventual transition to broader social protection?
