Integrating Gender-Based Violence Services Into HIV Care: Insights From Malawi

We successfully integrated GBV services into the Lighthouse Trust HIV clinics in close collaboration with the one-stop centers in Malawi. Training health care providers enhanced support for GBV survivors, with a focus on increasing awareness, especially for children and adolescents. Recommended actions include improving access to GBV services, enhancing documentation, and promoting multi-sectoral collaboration to ensure comprehensive care aimed at creating a safer, more dignified health care environment for all, particularly GBV survivors.
