‘Rwanda GBV Monitor’ is a one-year project that aims at improving institutional accountability and informed discussion and debate among the public on access to psychosocial and legal services in gender based violence in Rwanda, based on aggregated and anonymous data on GBV cases and victim’s access to psychosocial, police, and legal services. The project will coordinate with concerned Government agencies in Rwanda to study, plan, and (automated) update data to an aggregated platform to generate data analytics showing how the GBV cases are responded to.
