The second phase of the 'Masahat Amina (Safe Spaces)' intervention aims to improve access to protection services for the most vulnerable groups among the refugee and host communities in Jordan, with a focus on women and girls at risk or survivors of gender-based violence, children at risk of violence, abuse, neglect and exploitation, people with disabilities and their caregivers. The project envisages the strengthening of basic social services: integrated case management services, psychosocial support, mental health, safe spaces for empowerment, community-based awareness-raising campaigns, legal assistance and rehabilitation for persons with disabilities, and economic support for the self-protection of vulnerable groups through cash assistance services, training opportunities and income-generating activities.
The initiative aims to strengthen the response capacities of local actors through an integrated training plan for the staff of partner organisations, which includes specific meetings on child protection, women's protection, gender-based violence and psychosocial support with a focus on technology-facilitated gender-based violence (TF-GBV). Furthermore, the project aims to promote the active participation of communities in protection and social inclusion mechanisms to ensure the local sustainability of the intervention.
