Violence has many faces. They all hurt. Too often, it’s dismissed as “not serious enough.” But to change attitudes, we must speak openly and honestly about it. At HealthRight International in Ukraine and the Ukrainian Foundation for Public Health, we planted a cherry blossom garden on the “Alley of Women’s Power” in Kyiv. This living symbol honors the resilience of women who have experienced violence, showing they can heal, bloom, and move forward. This initiative, part of the “16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence,” resonated deeply with our clients, partners, and supporters. Thank you to The Kvinna till Kvinna Foundation, the Solomyanska District Administration in Kyiv, our incredible clients, the dedicated teams at the HealtgRight Day Center and Halfway House for Women with Children and all donors that support our work in Ukraine!

How important is advocating for child rights and participation in our work? It is among our top priorities! Hence, World Vision recently conducted a 5-day advocacy training in Chisinau, Moldova, bringing together our dedicated local partners from both Moldova and Ukraine to strengthen efforts in advocacy and child rights. Moldovan partners Centrul de Informare si Documentare privind Drepturile Copilului and Programul Educa?ional ”Pas cu Pas” joined Ukrainian partners Руки милост?, Children New Generation, ГО Д?вчата NGO Girls and "Право на здоров'я" (HealthRight International) в Укра?н? for a dynamic blend of learning, collaboration, and sharing of field experiences. World Vision's partners from Ukraine saw the programs implemented by the partners in Moldova that showcased the best practices and inspired ideas for collaborative advocacy. Facilitated by World Vision UK's Senior Protection & GESI Adviser Aimyleen Velicaria-Gabriel and Child Participation & External Engagement Advisor Marina Gutiérrez, the participants discussed child rights, participation, and advocacy across eight modules, from strategy development to influencing change in complex contexts. The partners also shared their inspiring work, learning on field visits, and formulated the joint advocacy strategic plan. ?? What child rights issues we can advocate for collectively. ?? How to engage children meaningfully in advocacy. ?? Resources, responsibilities, and timelines to drive impactful change. This effort marks a step forward for child rights advocacy in Moldova and Ukraine. ??

At the European Public Health Conference, our Ukraine team, led by Ukrainian Foundation for Public Health Executive Director Halyna Skipalska, PhD, shared strategies to address the rising cases of gender-based violence (GBV) amidst the ongoing conflict. In partnership with the WHO, since 2022, we’ve trained over 440 healthcare workers to improve GBV response in primary care. This helps raise awareness of GBV and prepare specialists working in primary health care centers to work in conditions that have changed due to the war. Together, we’re advancing global health solutions to support survivors and strengthen systems. Read the full article: https://lnkd.in/e4QnhgwT #EUPHA2024 #GBVResponse #HealthForAll

???????????????????? ??????????: ???????????????? ???????????? ???????????? Olchorro Health Centre is a fully functional level three facility established in 2016, within Melili Ward, Narok North Sub County, approximately 40 kilometres from the county headquarters, Narok Town. The facility, which has been one of the fulcrum of HealthRight Kenya’s New Partner Initiative (NPI) Expand project in the county supports approximately 1500 households and hosts 25 Community Health Volunteers (now known as Community-Based Distributors, CBDs) according to the Ministry of Health Records. These CBDs have a huge role in pushing the message to the grassroots level since they can connect perfectly with the community. Through the project funded by USAID through Palladium: Make It Possible, more than 126 healthcare workers were also trained and mentored in the provision of Family planning and/or maternal health services. 82 Traditional Birth Attendants (TBAs) were also engaged as birth companions to support referrals for FP/MH services.
