This will help women and girls affected by the conflict to rebuild their livelihoods and to seek justice for conflict and violence-related abuses.</p><p>Over £500,000 has also been provided to civil society organisations for awareness-raising and prevention of violence against women and girls.</p><p>All of our programmes in Nepal undergo a gender assessment during their design stage to ensure that women and girls are involved in decision-making processes and can access programme benefits. We are currently designing a new security and justice programme (value yet to be determined) which will build on existing support and help strengthen the justice system in Nepal to deliver a reduction in violence against women.</p>
