Our partners also include front-line organizations such as Auberge Madeleine and Maison LI-BER-T, which provide vital support to women who are victims or survivors of violence.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, we support structuring initiatives, such as the Table Osez au F\u00e9minin, a group of organizations working locally to combat GBV.

Across the spectrum of actions to combat GBV, Mission inclusion works to ensure that women victims and survivors of violence find both appropriate solutions and communities that support them, speak out and take action to put an end to this violence.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||0px|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#BE0055&#8243; header_text_color=&#8221;#BE0055&#8243; header_3_text_color=&#8221;#BE0055&#8243; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h3>Haiti: the PACIT project tackles systemic violence against women<\/h3>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; min_height=&#8221;435.3px&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;-29px|||||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;15px|||||&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<\/p>\n<p>In Haiti, where Mission inclusion has set up the Citizen Participation Improvement Project (PACIT &#8211; with the support of Global Affairs Canada), physical and sexual violence is taking on particularly worrying proportions. In rural communities, domestic violence is commonplace, and \u2018physical correction\u2019 is seen by many men as a legitimate right. The current climate of socio-political crisis exacerbates sexual violence. Armed groups use systematic rape as a weapon of terror against civilians: they burn down houses, kill and commit gang rapes to break down resistance and maintain a climate of fear. Women living in camps for displaced persons are among the most vulnerable, exposed not only to attacks but also to an almost total absence of services to protect them or help them get back on their feet.<\/p>\n<p>In response to these challenges, the PACIT project supports the Regroupement des organisations de femmes de Gressier et L\u00e9og\u00e2ne (ROFGL). Thanks to this support, a multi-sectoral committee against GBV has been set up, bringing together representatives from the justice system, the police, education, health and civil society. At the same time, the ROFGL has set up a support group for victims and survivors, offering them a place to speak out and show solidarity. These initiatives are laying the foundations for more systematic care for survivors, but challenges remain. The lack of resources, particularly the absence of shelters and psychological care services is a significant obstacle to these efforts.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||4px|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; header_3_text_color=&#8221;#BE0055&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;||9px|||&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h3>Kenya and East Africa: persistent challenges and the actions of the ReSea project<\/h3>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px|||||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; min_height=&#8221;266.8px&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<\/p>\n<p>Kenya is currently experiencing a serious feminicide crisis.

Economic violence, on the other hand, occurs when access to money or work is blocked, for example, when a woman is deprived of her bank account or prevented from working in the name of gender stereotypes.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||0px|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; header_3_text_color=&#8221;#BE0055&#8243; min_height=&#8221;73px&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||-15px|||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||0px|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3>Mission inclusion in Quebec: local support to combat gender-based violence<\/h3>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; min_height=&#8221;319.4px&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;-37px|||||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;26px|||||&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; text_font=&#8221;|700|||||||&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>In Quebec, Mission inclusion also works to combat gender-based violence (GBV) by supporting local organizations.

Our partners also include front-line organizations such as Auberge Madeleine and Maison LI-BER-T, which provide vital support to women who are victims or survivors of violence.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, we support structuring initiatives, such as the Table Osez au F\u00e9minin, a group of organizations working locally to combat GBV.

Across the spectrum of actions to combat GBV, Mission inclusion works to ensure that women victims and survivors of violence find both appropriate solutions and communities that support them, speak out and take action to put an end to this violence.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||0px|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#BE0055&#8243; header_text_color=&#8221;#BE0055&#8243; header_3_text_color=&#8221;#BE0055&#8243; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h3>Haiti: the PACIT project tackles systemic violence against women<\/h3>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; min_height=&#8221;435.3px&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;-29px|||||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;15px|||||&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; text_font=&#8221;|700|||||||&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>In Haiti, where Mission inclusion has set up the Citizen Participation Improvement Project (PACIT &#8211; with the support of Global Affairs Canada), physical and sexual violence is taking on particularly worrying proportions. In rural communities, domestic violence is commonplace, and \u2018physical correction\u2019 is seen by many men as a legitimate right. The current climate of socio-political crisis exacerbates sexual violence. Armed groups use systematic rape as a weapon of terror against civilians: they burn down houses, kill and commit gang rapes to break down resistance and maintain a climate of fear. Women living in camps for displaced persons are among the most vulnerable, exposed not only to attacks but also to an almost total absence of services to protect them or help them get back on their feet.<\/p>\n<p>In response to these challenges, the PACIT project supports the Regroupement des organisations de femmes de Gressier et L\u00e9og\u00e2ne (ROFGL). Thanks to this support, a multi-sectoral committee against GBV has been set up, bringing together representatives from the justice system, the police, education, health and civil society. At the same time, the ROFGL has set up a support group for victims and survivors, offering them a place to speak out and show solidarity. These initiatives are laying the foundations for more systematic care for survivors, but challenges remain. The lack of resources, particularly the absence of shelters and psychological care services is a significant obstacle to these efforts.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||4px|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; header_3_text_color=&#8221;#BE0055&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;||9px|||&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h3>Kenya and East Africa: persistent challenges and the actions of the ReSea project<\/h3>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px|||||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; min_height=&#8221;266.8px&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; text_font=&#8221;|700|||||||&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Kenya is currently experiencing a serious feminicide crisis.
