The document outlines guidelines for integrating interventions to address gender-based violence in humanitarian settings. It describes revisions made to update guidelines originally released in 2005. Key changes include reflecting changes in humanitarian coordination structures, recommending actions according to the humanitarian program cycle, addressing GBV risks across various contexts including natural disasters, and emphasizing accountability. The revised guidelines consist of an introduction and thematic area guidance covering 13 sectors, with essential actions and indicators to prevent and mitigate GBV in each stage of the humanitarian program cycle. The document reviews next steps to roll out the guidelines globally and additional supporting resources.
