Objective of the Assignment:
The objective of this assignment is two-fold:
- The consultant will conduct several psycho social informative sessions around sexual and gender based violence (SGBV), its definition, forms, effects, and treatment using a psycho social approach to reach in total 120 Sudanese women through 6-8 awareness sessions conducted in with 20 participants. The sessions should also cover types of SGBV, trauma and PTSD, resiliency, a sense of isolation, emotional awareness, as well as managing emotions, anger, and memories. When addressing SGBV and child protection issues, there is a need for building long-term relations with the community. Through these sessions women will know and understand SGBV, child protection causes and effects, and will be aware of available services. After every session, pre- and post- evaluation surveys will be conducted in order to evaluate whether attendees have gained the desired knowledge.
- The consultant will identify SGBV survivors from the psychosocial informative sessions and from the individual counseling sessions conducted in need of psychosocial support in a group setting to reach in total 80 beneficiaries through conducting 4 psychosocial support groups each group for two-day workshop, each group with target of 15-20 participants. Professional psychiatrists and counselors are requested to facilitate psychosocial support in a group setting. The therapy group should be much like a safe place in which members gain a sense of belonging and acceptance, they share feelings and experiences which help them relieve pain, guilt and stress. Members should be able to share their strengths and help others in the group, which can boost self-esteem and confidence. By interacting with other people and receiving feedback from the group and the therapist, each individual can gain a greater understanding of himself or herself, explore how childhood experiences contributed to personality and behaviors. They can also learn to avoid behaviors that are destructive or unhelpful for them. Studies have shown that group therapy can be an effective treatment choice for depression and traumatic stress. In each session, a presentation on a specific topic will be conducted followed by small sharing groups where each participant will get the chance to share concerns among the group. Small groups are to be organized with two facilitators to ensure a peaceful session. Participants will agree on the rules of the group sessions such as respecting confidentiality, committing to attend all sessions, and reserving judgment.
