Efforts to prevent and respond to GBV should be a priority for all actors in all humanitarian response operations from the very start. By mainstreaming GBV considerations in CBIs throughout the program cycle and by utilizing cash within GBV case management services, cash can be optimized as a tool to enhance the protection of crisis- and conflict-affected populations and to mitigate risks of recurrent violence, to promote recovery, and to build resilience.

This case study provides an overview of the assessment and monitoring activities conducted and key findings, as well as learning and recommendations to strengthen SCI’s approach to service delivery in Zinder with implications for its interventions across Niger.
