PROJECT SUMMARY
Gender-based violence is one of the most prevalent human rights violations in the world. It knows no social, economic or national boundaries. Worldwide, an estimated one in three women will experience physical or sexual abuse in her lifetime. Gender-based violence undermines the health, dignity, security and autonomy of its victims, yet it remains shrouded in a culture of silence.
Women and girls in Maasai community are at risk or that have been subjected to GBV are often not able to afford housing and might also require assistance in navigating the judicial, police, health and social services systems. Safe shelters offer protection while supporting and empowering survivors to become self sufficient and independent. It has been argued that safe shelters are not only a response but also a voice in the fight against GBV as they play a role in raising awareness and in generating social change.
