The effective provision of gender equality is central to safeguarding from this violence. Protection of human rights, upholding the rule of law and true democracy are among the strong factors for the provision of gender justice and protection from gender-based violence. Gender equality and gender justice cannot be achieved without equality in visibility, empowerment and opportunities. Gender equality also implies equal access of all genders to the resources of the state.
