This tender seeks proposals for the phased rollout of evidence-based Gender-Based Violence (GBV) prevention approaches in schools, higher education institutions, and community settings over a duration of 22 months.
The Department of Women, Youth and Persons with Disabilities is inviting proposals for the implementation of a comprehensive Gender-Based Violence (GBV) prevention program targeting schools, institutions of higher learning, and community settings. The project aims to address the alarming rates of GBV in South Africa, which disproportionately affect women, children, and LGBTQIA+ individuals. The successful bidder will be responsible for conducting needs assessments, designing context-specific interventions, and delivering training to educators and community leaders. Key objectives include promoting social and behavior change, building institutional capacity, and fostering multi-sectoral partnerships to ensure a sustainable response to GBV. The project will utilize evidence-based methodologies and focus on creating safe, inclusive environments that challenge harmful social norms and empower communities to take action against violence.
This tender is suitable for NGOs, educational institutions, and consulting firms with expertise in gender-based violence prevention, community engagement, and program implementation. Businesses with a strong track record in training, capacity building, and evidence-based interventions are encouraged to apply.
