Discussions centered on expanding family planning access, raising GBV awareness, and strengthening community and institutional support networks.Frontline actors detailed practical steps for service delivery. Healthcare providers emphasized immediate medical intervention following violence to supply emergency contraception, HIV post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP), and complete evidence collection. Law enforcement officers outlined reporting procedures and committed to handling defilement cases promptly without victim-blaming.
