Women represent 70 percent of the health and social sector workforce globally and special attention should be given to how their work environment may expose them to discrimination, as well as thinking about their sexual and reproductive health and psychosocial needs as frontline health workers.

Breaking the silence for equality: 2017 National Study on Gender-based Violence in Mongolia
Up until now, very little has been known about the prevalence and patterns of gender-based violence in Mongolia. Hence, there has been a real need for evidence to learn more about the prevalence, causes and consequences of gender-based violence, and in particular to inform policy directions. To address this lack of data, UNFPA Mongolia and NSO conducted a nationwide study on the prevalence of violence against women – Breaking the Silence for Equality: 2017 National Study on Gender-based Violence in Mongolia. This is the first large-scale quantitative and qualitative study on this topic that has ever been conducted in Mongolia.
