The treatment of the protection of civilians in armed conflict is multidimensional and cuts across the 23 work of the various United Nations bodies, in particular in the context of the General Assembly and the work of the Third and Sixth Committees through various resolutions, among which those on the “Status of the Protocols Additional to the Geneva Conventions of 1949 and relating to the protection of victims of armed conflicts” and the “Intensification of efforts to eliminate all forms of violence against women” stand out.
