ISDP provides comprehensive services to prevent and respond to gender-based violence, child protection concerns, and psychosocial needs. The organization collaborates closely with communities and local actors to strengthen referral pathways, raise awareness of rights, and build local capacity to prevent and respond to violence. Special emphasis is placed on empowering women, girls, and children to live free from abuse, exploitation, and discrimination. Even in projects where GBV and protection are not the primary focus, these issues are systematically integrated across all activities to ensure consistent attention, fostering protective environments and ensuring the dignity, rights, and safety of vulnerable populations.

All ISDP staff receive training and sign policies that uphold zero tolerance for GBV, reinforce protection principles, and prevent sexual exploitation and abuse (PSEA), maintaining high ethical standards across the organization. The organization also implements Accountability to Affected Populations (AAP) mechanisms, providing safe and confidential channels for communities to give feedback, raise concerns, or report incidents.
