The mapping exercise sought to determine the strengths in UNFPA's work in ending GBV as well as providing the analysis to support opportunities for increased investment in the quality and coverage of programming.

<p>Women like Kelsang Tshomo, a bus conductor in Bhutan, support women by educating other conductors and drivers&nbsp;on gender-based violence to address it in their own lives and those of public transportation passengers.&nbsp;&copy; UNFPA Bhutan/Sunita Giri</p>

<p>Other innovations on wheels include mobile clinics, like those in remote and conflict-affected parts of&nbsp;Ukraine, where Dr. Ievghenia Kyslytsia, a gynaecologist, examines women for reproductive cancers. &copy; UNFPA Ukraine</p>

<p>Sometimes supporting women&nbsp;comes after a change of mind. Kokarupe Lorwu, Methani Chepurai Lokuda and&nbsp;Chepchongil Cheleston are former cutters in Kenya who, now in their 70s, are&nbsp;speaking out against female genital mutilation for younger generations of women.&nbsp;&copy; UNFPA Kenya/Luis Tato</p>

<p>Other times, that support comes from changing people&#39;s&nbsp;minds. Flavia Buitrón belongs to an organization of Quechua women in Peru that raises awareness of indigenous women&#39;s issues.&nbsp;&copy; UNFPA Peru</p>
