addressing these needs, strategic actions that will lessen the vulnerability women to Drug War-related violence are distant options. Recommendation 1: Mapping of available social services addressing the multi-dimensional needs of women and children from EJK families, from the immediate such as those relating to access to food, livelihood and secure shelter, to longer-term support such as legal assistance. The resulting directory should include both government and non-government direct service providers. Recommendation 2: Establishment social services and security pathways for EJK families at the national, regional and local levels. Where no direct service provider is present in the areas, or it is inaccessible to people, assist in the creation of response systems to reach the women and their children. Recommendation 3: Development a community-based capacity building program which is informed by human rights and gender-based frameworks to strengthen women and children, as well as their communities, against various forms of violence, and to engage the State in opening social services and security pathways. Recommendation 4: Mobilization of non-State actors to develop a nationwide documentation system of EJK cases which contains information not only on the killing but various and continuing human rights violations experienced by women and children in the context of the Drug War. The information can be used for legal purposes, for monitoring the status of cases, education and advocacy, among others, bearing in mind ethical considerations of informed and voluntary consent by concerned parties, data privacy, and protection of EJK families and witnesses against further harm. The main goal of implementing the above activities is to contribute to tangible changes in the lives of women and children directly affected by the War on Drugs through EJK, specifically, for the women, children and their families to become self-sufficient and integrated into their communities, well-informed of their rights & opportunities leading to informed decision making and life choices.
