4: Every Represents a Survivor, and Must be Handled with Care

What happens when GBV data is recorded inaccurately or without confidentiality?
Lives can be put at risk. Trust can be broken. Services can fail those who need them most.

That’s why Day 4 of the ongoing training focused on strengthening one critical tool: the (IR), the backbone of , , and GBV .

Yesterday sessions combined learning with action, focused more on:

An overview of the (IR)
Reviewing scenarios
Hands-on Incident Recorder practice
Linking intake forms with the IR to ensure accurate data entry.

Working through real-life scenarios on their laptops, participants did not just learn the system, they practiced how to get it right under real conditions. With guidance from GBVIMS specialists and , the focus remained clear: accuracy, consistency, and survivor-centred documentation are non-negotiable.

A powerful moment came with insights from , representing Cameroon, who reminded participants that Confidentiality is not optional, it is protection.

She added that timely reporting , and that every entry must uphold the dignity of survivors.

The short term impact is already glaring. Participants moved from understanding tools to building confidence in using them responsibly, strengthening the link between data quality and survivor safety.

As the training continues, one message stands strong: "Better data doesn’t just improve reporting, it strengthens protection systems and saves lives."

From Knowledge to Practice: -

Today’s (implemented by TeenAlive, with funds from GIZ/BMZ and the European Union, and Technical support from ) moved beyond , placing participants at the center of hands-on, practical learning designed to strengthen real-world GBV response skills.

The day began with an in-depth, highly interactive session on , a cornerstone of $ethical and - programming. Participants explored what consent truly means, when it applies, and the critical distinctions between , , and .

To bring this to life, participants engaged in a role-play simulation. Role plays highlighted the need for deeper skills in active listening, emotional sensitivity, and managing distress disclosures. Clarifying consent and assent in practice; distinguishing between consent, assent, and caregiver roles, especially in cases involving minors, requires further reinforcement.

The second session shifted focus to data mapping and case management systems. Through practical group work, organizations mapped how data is currently collected, analyzed, stored, and used within their systems. By visualizing these processes through flowcharts, participants were able to identify gaps, strengthen accountability, and improve data-driven decision-making.

Key takeaway: Effective protection programming requires not only technical knowledge, but the ability to apply it ethically, systematically, and consistently in the field.

Today’s sessions, led by Charles with technical guidance from Lilian, reinforced a shared commitment to accountability, survivor dignity, and quality service delivery.

Strengthening GBV Response Systems Through Data, Ethics, and Localisation

Day 2 of the training in , implemented by under the -led “ ” project ( / & EU funded), advanced participants’ technical capacity in survivor-centred GBV data management and inter-agency coordination systems.

In a context where GBV remains widespread in crisis-affected regions of , strengthening the quality and integrity of GBV data is essential to ensure effective, ethical, and coordinated response services.

Led by UNFPA GBVIMS specialists ( and ) with support from (UNFPA), the session focused on the practical application of GBVIMS tools, including intake forms, survivor and incident coding, and GBV classification systems. Through hands-on exercises, participants strengthened their ability to apply standardised coding and classification under real case scenarios, reinforcing data quality and system coherence across organisations.

This investment directly contributes to strengthening inter-agency GBV information systems, improving coordination, and enhancing evidence-based decision-making for survivor protection.

Participants applied GBVIMS tools in practical simulations, strengthening standardised coding and classification across organisations for improved data integrity.

:
Accurate, standardised, and survivor-centred data is the backbone of an effective GBV response system; without it, coordination, accountability, and survivor protection are significantly weakened.

The session reinforces UNFPA’s commitment to strengthening GBV systems through technical leadership, while advancing localisation through partners like TeenAlive, a Women-Led Organisation driving field implementation.

GBV Data Systems and Survivor-Centred Response through GBVIMS Capacity Building under the “Woman eh” Project

Yesterday marked the successful launch of Cohort 1 (Day 1) of the GBVIMS training of locally Women-Led Organisation (WLO) in Limbe, implemented by TeenAlive under a localisation-driven partnership model, with humanitarian funding and technical leadership from , within the framework of the - and funded “Woman eh! Wuna Place Dey” project ( ).

This intervention responds to the continued impact of the crisis in the North West and South West regions of Cameroon, where gender-based violence remains widespread and disproportionately affects women and girls. Within this context, strengthening GBV information management systems is critical to ensuring that services are evidence-based, coordinated, and survivor-centred.

Currently, only a limited number of organisations are fully certified to use the inter-agency system in the region. This training, therefore, represents a strategic investment to expand the pool of qualified actors and improve the quality, consistency, and ethical management of GBV data, in line with global GBVIMS standards and Information Sharing Protocols (ISP).

The opening ceremony brought together key stakeholders, including the Regional Delegate of for the South West Region, the National GBV AoR Coordinator at (Lilian), and the Executive Director of . Speakers emphasised the importance of reliable GBV data for informed government action, strengthened coordination, and improved survivor protection services.

The Regional Delegate underscored the need for accurate, confidential, and ethical data systems to guide protection responses, while reinforcing the importance of strong government, partner collaboration in GBV prevention and response.

Lilian highlighted that is providing technical leadership and GBVIMS expertise, while implementation is led by TeenAlive. She appreciated TeenAlive for the proper logistics preparation, which was solely coordinated by TeenAlive. The master trainer for this training is Kengah Charles, a GBVIMs Specialist. She further emphasised GBVIMS as a cornerstone for inter-agency coordination, data protection, and evidence-based programming, ensuring accountability and improved service delivery.

Both UNFPA and government stakeholders commended TeenAlive’s leadership as a WLO, recognising its growing role in advancing localised GBV prevention and response systems. The Executive Director of TeenAlive expressed appreciation to UNFPA, MINPROFF, and all participants, reaffirming the importance of structured collaboration with government actors to strengthen field implementation and sustainability of services.

Day 1 of the training focused on building a foundational understanding of the GBVIMS system. The day began with welcome and opening remarks led by UNFPA, Gordon, and Lilian, followed by Session 1 on GBVIMS fundamentals facilitated by Kathel. Participants were introduced and guided through the Intake Form, followed by hands-on case studies to reinforce practical application. The day concluded with an introduction to GBVIMS coding principles and a structured wrap-up session.

The training is structured in three cohorts, reaching 75 participants from over 30 organisations, including WLOs, NGOs, and government representatives. The approach ensures quality learning, practical application, and stronger system uptake across actors.

This project represents a significant milestone for TeenAlive, reflecting its strengthened role as a Women-Led Organisation implementing high-impact humanitarian action and contributing to the broader UNFPA agenda of strengthening national GBV data systems, coordination mechanisms, and survivor-centred service delivery through localisation and partnership.

📢📢📢📢THIS APRIL, WE SPEAK UP. WE STAND UP. WE SHOW UP!

Sexual violence doesn't just hurt one person , it breaks down through families, friendships, and entire communities. That's why every April, we observe Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM) a powerful, and necessary reminder that awareness saves lives, and silence never protects the vulnerable.

This month is a call to action for all of us To:

📌Learn : Understand consent, healthy relationships, and the warning signs of abuse
📌Prevent : Champion bystander intervention and hold perpetrators accountable
📌 Support :Meet survivors with compassion, dignity, and the resources they deserve
📌 Challenge: Break down the myths and misinformation that silence and shame survivors.

If someone ever comes to you and shares their story, believe them. Your response in that moment can change everything. Refer them for support. Listen without judgment. And gently encourage them to seek professional help.Our children are especially counting on us. Let's build a world where no survivor , young or old , ever feels alone. Contact us on:

📌+237 6 53 30 67 82/ +237 675485090

Sometimes, it takes one painful story to wake a nation.

The recent case of Divine Mbarga has shaken us all. But beyond the outrage, we must ask ourselves a difficult question:

How many children are still suffering in silence?
How many cases like this go unreported?
How many children r***d suffer from injustice?
How do we react when such cases are reported in our neighbourhoods?

Child r**e is not a distant problem. It is happening in our homes and communities. And too often, behind closed doors and hidden by silence.

At TeenAlive, we believe that this must stop.

This video is not just a message. It is a call to action for parents, communities, government, and civil society.

Dear Parents: Listen, Believe and Protect.
Dear Communities members: Speak up, Report and Act.
To our Justice System: Enforce, Protect and Deliver justice.
To Organizations: Collaborate, Prevent and Respond.

Silence protects perpetrators, while action protects children.

Let this moment not pass as just another headline. Let it be a turning point.

.

Protect Every Child.
Break the Silence.
Act Now.

We own no rights to the sound track.

Under the ongoing / Project in Meme and Ndian Divisions, empowering communities goes beyond awareness raising, it’s about creating practical, sustainable solutions.

As part of the Psychosocial Group Activity and Skill Transfer initiative, and with support from the through , TeenAlive carried out an Economic Empowerment activity in Ekondo-Titi at the WGSS. Women were equipped with hands-on skills in the production of locally made “Cocoa Soap.”

This budget-friendly soap serves as a reliable alternative for many grassroots households who cannot afford industrially manufactured products. Beyond its use for everyday domestic chores, it represents dignity, resilience, and self-reliance within the community.

In spaces where resources are limited, initiatives like this help families keep going ensuring that basic needs are met while strengthening local capacity and economic independence.

In crisis settings, the method of teaching matters just as much as access to learning spaces.

In Mendakwe, the ACCESS Project, funded by the Stone Family Foundation and Street Child, is applying the TaRL approach within satellite learning spaces established for displaced and vulnerable girls across ten communities in the North-West region of Cameroon.

The results are quite encouraging. Over 150 girls are fully enrolled in Mendakwe alone, with an overall learning progress rate of 65% recorded across the programme. Girls are making measurable gains in basic reading, number recognition, and spelling, foundational skills that open every door along the learning pathway.

Many of these girls are internally displaced, having fled neighboring villages, while others are returnees rebuilding their lives. Yet within these learning spaces, displacement does not define their future. They are learning, being supported, and given the opportunity to dream. Some aspire to become doctors, others engineers, their ambitions are as wide as the opportunities they aspire to.

In the midst of an armed crisis, these spaces demonstrate that the right approach, in the right hands, can reach even the most vulnerable child in the hardest to reach communities.

We extend our sincere gratitude to Street Child and the Stone Family Foundation for making this possible alongside TeenAlive.
