This publication advocates rethinking of the frameworks established to address SEAH in order to more fully reflect linkages between SEAH and GBV. The paper argues that organisations in the development and humanitarian sectors, including the United Nations and peacekeeping missions, have tended to address these two forms of violence as separate and independent, often flowing into distinct procedural and policy domains. Instead they should recognise and uproot the gendered, racialised and all power inequalities that shape SEAH and GBV, which is necessary in order to address them.
