GIR'ITEKA (Be Respected) Health Activity

The objective of GIRITEKA (Be Respected) is to improve the integration of gender-based violence (GBV) prevention and response into the HIV clinical cascade to accelerate progress towards control of the HIV epidemic and, more specifically, to address GBV, a key structural driver of the HIV epidemic.

Three intermediate results will support achievement of this objective: 1) Improved GBV and HIV prevention for vulnerable and key populations; 2) Improved GBV case-identification and response in HIV index testing and partner notification; 3) Improved post-GBV care integrated into HIV clinical services
