Focal Point:

The gender protection thematic area focuses on guaranteeing equal rights and opportunities for women and persons with diverse identities in situations of mobility.

It recognizes that refugees and migrants face specific risks related to gender-based violence, exploitation, and barriers in accessing health services and justice.

It also drives the creation of safe environments and care mechanisms with a gender and human rights approach. It promotes violence prevention, access to sexual and reproductive health services, and regional cooperation to ensure inclusive, sensitive, and comprehensive protection-oriented migration responses.
