There is a growing consent that vulnerability to gender based violence (hereinafter, GBV) increases during forced mass movement of people, and that refugee women and girls are particularly affected. The paper aims to provide an insight and to unpack the complex question of how do we respond to gender based violence affecting people travelling along migration routes to Europe. Worth noting is the fact that there are scarce data, if any, on national response to GBV en route to Europe. The analyses presented is based on the findings from a small-scale survey initiated by MARRI Regional Centre "Challenges in the identification and the protection of vulnerable individuals and victims of gender based violence and trafficking in human beings in the context of the current migration crisis", conducted in 3 MARRI participants in the summer, 2017. The paper examines practices and policies in relation to responding to GBV only in the Republic of Macedonia. The analysis is based on qualitative data collected using interviews and document analysis. Sources of data in Macedonia were governmental professionals and CSO field workers who acted as first line respondents in the mixed migration flow. Data collection was conducted in the period June-July 2017. All findings relate only to the respondents' understanding and recognition of GBV and provide initial insight on responding to GBV affecting people travelling along Balkan route to Europe. Thus, findings have no purpose to present "objective" reality of the operation of the system of identification and protection from GBV. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
