Ensure the LOCATION of facilities and the routes to them are distant from threats of violence; especially the risk or threat of gender based violence (GBV) and attacks from armed groups.

Make INFRASTRUCTURE adaptations such as fitting ramps and railings to facilities so that all individuals and groups can access and use the facilities in safety and with dignity

Ensure that CONFIDENTIALITY AND PRIVACY are respected in all forms of consultation, counseling and personal information sharing.

Do not share IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION (e.g. names, addresses, or traits and characteristics about the case that can lead to identification, etc.). unless consent has been given by the beneficiary

Make sure that only qualified psychosocial workers are on STAFF to receive and counsel survivors
of violations, especially when dealing with children and/or survivors of GBV.
