However perpetrator's of GBV also need and deserve resources to build and maintain their own mental wellness. Many perpetrator's of GBV are not inherently "bad" or malicious but during a crisis such as conflict that leads to displacement or a pandemic that leads to lockdowns and job lossessmany lack the emotional resilience to navigate the stresses of an uncetain situation. This is especially true for men growing up in cultures where their sense of manhood is questioned if they can no longer provide for their families.
