Highlights:
1. When crisis strikes, UNFPA sends emergency supplies and equipment to make childbirth safer and to support medical interventions where necessary. More comprehensive services
are organized when the worst of the crisis has passed.
2. UNFPA works with governments, local organizations and other humanitarian partners to provide medical care and social support for the survivors of sexual violence and to prevent further attacks. UNFPA coordinates inter-agency actors to ensure a robust and multi-sector response to gender-based violence from the earliest stages of an emergency.
3. UNFPA ships condoms, equipment for safe blood supply, and other items for HIV prevention as soon as emergencies hit. When the situation stabilizes, and in refugee settings, more comprehensive prevention activities are established.
4. UNFPA recognizes the potential of young people to reverse cycles of violence and instability, to become responsible decision makers and to rebuild devastated communities, offering their nations new prospects for the future.
