| Project Detail |
The Additional Financing (AF) will complement the project outcome (quality of and access to prevention and multidisciplinary response to domestic violence (DV) strengthened) and expand project outputs 1-3 (multi-disciplinary response and livelihood assistance services to domestic violence survivors delivered; capacity of key officials and staff responsible for protection and rehabilitation services for DV survivors improved; and behavior of key stakeholders on prevention, reporting and protection of survivors improved) by piloting an innovative integrated suite of digital components of the DV hotline center 107. The AF aims to pilot test advanced technologies through expansion of the ICT infrastructure and scale up critical interventions of an ongoing project to more effectively address DV cases.
