Victims of Domestic Violence & Abuse

Every survivor deserves safety, dignity, and someone who listens.

About this program

Sexual violence continues to affect women, girls, and other vulnerable people in communities across Africa. Survivors may face trauma, stigma, isolation, and barriers to accessing medical and psychological care.

DAFARA stands with survivors with compassion and dignity, supporting efforts that provide safety, essential care, emotional support, and pathways toward recovery. Every survivor deserves to be heard, protected, and supported.

Support is coordinated around identified needs, with a clear plan for delivery and a documented outcome.

PEOPLE BEFORE PROJECTS

Start by listening.

Behind every request is a person, a family and a community. Understanding their priorities is the first step toward useful support.

Education, health and everyday wellbeing are connected. A clear plan brings those needs into focus and makes the next step easier to understand.
