In the immediate aftermath of the earthquake on 25th April 2015, UNFPA, the United Nations Population Fund, in coordination with the Ministry of Health and Population, the Ministry of Women, Children and Social Welfare and many other partners, reached out to the most vulnerable population in the 14 most-affected districts to deliver sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services and to prevent and respond to gender-based violence (GBV). UNFPA’s integrated RH and GBV response focused on conducting mobile reproductive health camps, supporting Female-Friendly Spaces, delivering dignity kits, providing life-saving reproductive health supplies (RH Kits) and building the capacity of health
service providers. Three months into the earthquake response, many urgent needs have been met, however UNFPA continues to work in the 14 most-affected districts in support of vulnerable women and girls.
