Marie Perrault/GSF Our process The Global Survivors Fund (GSF) advocates for duty bearers as well as the international community to develop reparation programmes, and […]

In 2025, GSF reached more survivors of conflict-related sexual violence than any other year since our creation – providing interim reparative measures to 3,986 survivors.

This article, by GSF’s Regional Coordinator for Africa Naitore Nyamu Mathenge, originally appeared in The Star. Across conflict zones, one question is rarely asked: what does justice look like for a victim? You may have read this and thought of an adult. But now, think of a child.

By Esther Dingemans I have just returned from Chad, where I visited refugee camps for those who fled the conflict in Sudan, including many women and girls subjected to conflict-related sexual violence. I came back quite shaken by what we witnessed, but also more convinced than ever that there is an opportunity – an urgent one – to make a difference in what has become a profoundly neglected context.  […]

The ‘base’ in the town of Dékoa, as it referred to locally, is a hive of activity. Arriving here in the centre of the village, it feels alive with a sense of community, with both survivors and staff from our partner organisations here every day. There is a guesthouse, offices and meeting rooms, a kitchen, a room for livelihood trainings, and a small vegetable garden planted by survivors. It is almost a village in itself.   […]

Louise Robin recently returned from an 11-month assignment in Chad as a manager for gender-based violence response and survivor support. Here, she reflects on her experience in a position led by Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) and with a strong reporting link to GSF, a first for both organisations.  When I arrived in Chad’s Adré and Aboutengé camps in March 2025, MSF was already providing medical care for survivors of conflict-related sexual violence who had […]

I recently came back from the Central African Republic, where I attended the closing ceremony of our project there. Over the past two years we worked alongside survivors of conflict-related sexual violence in the town of Dékoa to provide interim reparative measures, co-designed to reaffirm dignity, stability, and hope while longer-term justice processes continue. I was incredibly moved by how much has changed since my first visit in 2021. It […]

In the Colombian city of Apartadó, more than 70 survivors of conflict-related sexual violence joined a sit-in in December organised by the Mujeres del Plantón, a women’s network that brings together survivors from across the Urabá region.   Dressed in orange to coincide with the 16 Days of Activism, the women sat together with placards bearing messages of support to one another: “No one is […]
