A/HRC/13/71 E/CN.6/2010/8 Children to broker collaboration with the Royal Bhutan Police and the Royal Court of Justice. That partnership resulted in the adoption of in camera trials to protect survivors from public exposure, and in the creation of a complaints and response mechanism that prompts rapid responses to cases of violence. In Simbu province in Papua New Guinea, the non-governmental organization Kup Women for Peace worked directly with the police to resolve cases of violence against women, sorcery killings and land disputes, using a combination of references to customary and international human rights norms. In Sierra Leone, the International Rescue Committee assisted the Government in developing a three-year implementation plan to strengthen collaboration for the implementation of new national laws against violence. It has since created practical tools for service providers in tracking cases and collecting data; organized training for 96 police, inspectors general and judges; and held town meetings to engage informal justice systems. After the Venezuelan non-governmental organization Asociación Venezolana para una Educación Sexual Alternativa trained nearly 200 justice and law enforcement officials and university students on how to implement the national law against violence, the municipal police academy in Sucre incorporated the training into its professional development programme, which is required for all inspectors, sub-inspectors, agents and detectives; (d) Expanding survivor access to support services: United Nations Trust Fund grants have made substantial, rapid improvements in a variety of social, legal and health services for survivors. Grantees in the Russian Federation and Ukraine, for example, expanded women’s access to comprehensive, integrated and highquality services. In Ukraine, the non-governmental organization Rozrada contributed to the national action plan for the implementation of the domestic violence law, through training programmes in four pilot regions that have increased the capacity of 2,000 central and local service providers to detect abuse and provide psychological support to survivors. An independent evaluation found that the project had helped to bring about a fivefold increase in the number of perpetrators summoned by the police in the Kiev region, and concluded that the quality of the services provided in the four regions was much improved. In Saint Petersburg, Russian Federation, the non-governmental organization Doctors to Children is developing and institutionalizing an inter-agency service protocol. Through the Centre for Social Assistance to Families and Children, women can already gain access to a combination of psychological counselling, assistance in registering for social benefits, peer support groups on empowerment and childcare services; (e) Responding to the needs of excluded groups of women: the emphasis of the United Nations Trust Fund on breaking barriers of exclusion assisted grantees in Bolivia (Plurinational State of), Ecuador and Egypt in expanding services for groups of women who would otherwise remain neglected. In Bolivia (Plurinational State of) and Ecuador, Family Care International partnered with two organizations for indigenous peoples to hold community group discussions in order to amplify the voices of indigenous women in expressing their cultural perspectives regarding laws against domestic violence. As a result, 1,750 indigenous women and 250 men made recommendations that have contributed to a new model of appropriate services to prevent and respond to violence against indigenous women. In Egypt, the Al-Shehab Foundation for Comprehensive Development engaged women and men living in a slum outside Cairo to define the services that they needed on the basis of local perceptions and patterns of violence. Al-Shehab used that information to develop its 09-65802 5
