Improving Response to Sexual Violence in Moldova through Sexual Assault Response Teams (SARTs)

The Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) of the U.S. Department of State announces an open competition for organizations to submit applications to carry out a project to Improving Response to Sexual Violence in Moldova through Sexual Assault Response Teams (SARTs). The purpose of the project is to support the Government of Moldova’s (GoM’s) efforts to establish a multidisciplinary group composed of agencies and organizations that provide services to sexual assault victims that will provide a coordinated response to sexual assault at the community level while effectively responding to victim’s needs. These actions will ensure sexual assault victims’ access to justice through a coordinated, systemic response that applies Sexual Assault Response Team (SART) best practices while building capacity for targeted law enforcement officials and the judiciary.
