{{The Police chiefs of South Africa and Ethiopia forces visited the Rwanda National Police (RNP) anti-gender violence medical wing \u2013 Isange One-Stop centre \u2013 on March 5 and commended the initiative as the best approach in fighting violence against women and girls.}}<\/p>\n

Gen. Victoria Mangwashi Phiyega of South Africa Police Services and Assefa Abiyu were in the country to attend the third International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) Sub-Saharan Africa Executive Policing conference which ended on March 4 in Kigali.<\/p>\n

They were received at the centre by Commissioner of Police, Dr. Daniel Nyamwasa and Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) Dr. Wilson Rubanzana, the Director of Medical Services in RNP.<\/p>\n

They were taken through various units such as counselling, children and the victims\u2019 ward and explained on the various services the centre offers to the victims until they are discharged.<\/p>\n

CP Nyamwasa explained that the centre was established as a holistic approach against gender-based violence and that the discharged victims are followed up even when they are at home.<\/p>\n

The RNP is currently decentralising the centre, which offers free medical, psycho-socio and legal services to GBV victims, to 41 hospitals across the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cIsange One Stop Centre is a good integrated initiative, a novelty and sterling work. Keep it up,\u201d Gen Phiyega said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is surely a remarkable initiative and I am proud of you,\u201d Abiyu said.
\nThe centre was established in 2009 with the support of One-UN Rwanda and Imbuto Foundation and has since received over 6500 GBV-related cases.<\/p>\n

Earlier on, Abiyu met with the Deputy Inspector general of Police, Dan Munyuza at the RNP headquarters in Kacyiru and the two discussed various security issues.<\/p>\n

The Rwanda National Police and Ethiopia Federal Police signed a memorandum of understanding to cooperate, mainly, in capacity building, exchange of information and best practices and close collaboration in other areas relevant to security.<\/p>\n
