Abstract

This policy brief highlights findings from the IRiS working papers series undertaken to fill research gaps on the experience of sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) among refugees in countries of transit and resettlement and the impacts thereof on refugees’ integration. There is a growing body of literature on refugees’ risks and experience of SGBV in contexts of displacement, but little remains known about the longer-term repercussions of those experiences on transiting and resettling refugees’ coping and recovery.
