[...] SITUATION REPORT UNFPA RESPONSE ● To ensure the continuity of services, UNFPA and its partners are operating a hotline to provide psychosocial support, information, referrals and to document cases of GBV. [...] ● In collaboration with Ouest Department health officials, the Centre pour le Développement et Sante (CDS) and FADHRIS, UNFPA organised two mobile clinics that provided sexual and reproductive health (SRH) and GBV services to 636 people (579 women) at the Sowaya and Eglise Pentecôte des Frères Unis sites. [...] ● Due to the security situation, the GBV sub-cluster meeting continues to be held online in the MAPP, while the regional sub-cluster meeting in Artibonite continues to meet face-to-face. [...] FUNDING STATUS UNFPA is appealing for US$28 Million to strengthen and expand access to lifesaving SRH and GBV services and supplies in Haiti for women and girls in need.
