Coordination

Operational standards

The design, implementation and monitoring of CVA is actively coordinated through strategic, technical and operational fora. 

Key actions

1. Participate with all coordination and technical actors (CWG, governement line ministries, relevant clusters, etc) to actively coordinate the program (at all levels i.e. national/subnational) and actively promote gender sensitivity as a recognized feature in CVA. For SRHR programming: Also participate in SRHR coordination mechanisms and highlight the needs and gaps in support of SRHR that could be coered by interventions with CVA.

Highlight the needs and gaps in support of SRHR that could be covered by interventions with CVA and advocate for the inclsuion of SRHR needs in MEBs.
3. Triangulate data collected using different methods and from different sources in order to identify unreliable data and inconsistencies.
