UNFPA recognizes the importance of ensuring quality mental health and psychosocial support services (MHPSS) for strengthening the response to GBV as well as to promote adolescent health and wellbeing. One of UNFPA’s key focus areas in strengthening services related to GBV prevention and response has been capacity building of critical stakeholders including One Stop Centre (OSC) staff, officials from the state Departments of Women and Child Development, health professionals, and CSO representatives on MHPSS and counselling skills to respond to survivors of GBV. UNFPA is keen to associate with an implementing partner which has expertise in the areas of MHPSS and in the provision of counselling services through a helpline.
