Context

Un Ponte Per (UPP) is an NGO established in 1991.

Later on, the intervention of Un Ponte per… started including Serbia and other Middle Eastern and Mediterranean countries. The NGO mission is to prevent new conflicts, protect human rights and support civil society, especially in the Middle East, through humanitarian and development programs, always supporting the local civil society. UPP is active in Iraq since 1991 and is regularly registered at National and Kurdistan Region levels. The main UPP offices in Iraq are in Erbil and Baghdad. This project, funded by OCHA and UNFPA, aims at strengthening the ability of survivors of gender-based violence to seek support and reintegration capacity in the social fabric in the governorates of Nineveh and Kirkuk, benefitting from an integrated approach of GBV and MHPSS for an effective and complete intervention. This will be done through the direct provision of specialized GBV services and community-based support mechanisms in Nineveh, and Kirkuk with a strong emphasis on building partnerships with and between different sectors and working with communities on prevention and risk mitigation, providing comprehensive training to GBV and non GBV service providers (e.g. case managers, psychologists, medics and paramedics, lawyers), to build and strengthen a multi sectoral response for GBV survivors at the community level.
