Ending GBV: How to Help
If you are concerned about a friend, family member, or peer who may be experiencing violence, here are steps you can take to offer support:
- Keep in touch with the person, ensuring that it is safe for them to be in touch with you. They might not be ready to talk, but try to find quiet times when they can talk if they choose to.
- Find out what services for survivors of violence against women are available. Only provide this information directly if you can do so discretely. Allow them to make their own decisions.
- If someone you know needs urgent help for whatever reason, be prepared to call emergency services.
Health workers should provide first-line support, for all kinds of violence:
- Listen closely, with empathy and without judgement.
- Inquire about women’s needs and concerns.
- Validate women’s experiences. Show you believe and understand.
- Enhance their safety.
- Support women to connect with additional services.
