Brief Introduction
To contribute to reducing GBV cases in conflict and war affected environments with rampant cases of sexual violence where women and girls underwent sexual assault. The management of CASS inconjuction with Cordiad embarked on training health workers to handle clinical management of rape survivors. This training was to equip them with knowledge and skills for better management of cases. In nutshell, this was done by using participant’s guide adapted by RSS for managing GBV cases in emergency setting.
Therefore, the trained groups were expected to cascade the knowledge acquired to all non medical staffs in their respective health facilities to improve the case management of survivors ‘and to set up the referral partway within health facilities and beyond. This could only be done through regular in service trainings and refreshers which form the basis for this training.
