Please join the PEPFAR Gender and Adolescent Girls Technical Working Group and AIDSFree as they share lessons from the three-year, $55 million Gender-based Violence Initiative (GBVI). The GBVI integrated gender-based violence (GBV) prevention and response into existing HIV prevention, care, and treatment programs at health facility, community, and policy levels in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Mozambique, and Tanzania.

Representatives from PEPFAR and implementing partners from Washington, DC, and the three countries will share lessons from various models for integrating GBV prevention and response in HIV programs such as addressing GBV prevention and response simultaneously; taking a selected set of approaches or a multicomponent GBV program model across the PEPFAR platform of services; and building linkages between facility- and community-based GBV prevention and response interventions.
