Empowering Survivors
• Need to improve access and quality of service dramatically
• Currently huge gap in service providers knowledge
• Massive barriers facing survivors
• Survivors expected to be teacher every time they visit a service provider

• Physical care
• Obstetric
• Gynae
• Sexual
• Psychological care
• Sensitive and appropriate
• Should be considered as vital part of survivor health care

Prioritising women
• Lack of efforts to find ways to improve the access of survivors to support they may need is highly discriminatory.
• All women have the human right to sexual pleasure
• Clitoral restoration in conjunction with psychological care should be considered urgently.
