Gender-based violence is one of the issues that has been receiving much attention from the whole society, especially gender-based violence against disadvantaged groups. As part of a series of activities to enhance the prevention of gender-based violence against persons with disabilities, on June 16-17 in Thua Thien Hue province, the ACDC collaborated with the Project Management Unit to organize a training course on “Gender-based violence against persons with disabilities for health staff and legal staff”.

In addition to the knowledge and skills on preventing gender-based violence, trainees were also able to analyze cases of victims of violence as well as share real-life stories in the locality. Especially in the training, steps to manage a case of violence and the connection model between relevant agencies were mentioned and illustrated very specifically by the trainer. Thereby, groups of local officials’ networks were formed to share information, monitor, support, and timely counsel for victims of violence.

Trainees present and analyze specific situations when experiencing sexual violence in the locality
