We also wish to highlight the work of the International Criminal Court. Its Rome Statute includes within the category of war crimes and crimes against humanity crimes involving acts of sexual violence against women and children. We emphasize the contribution made in that connection by the International Criminal Tribunals for the former Yugoslavia and Rwanda, with their valuable rulings on the subject.

PeaceWomen Consolidated Themes:

Sexual and Gender-Based Violence

Justice, Rule of Law and Security Sector Reform
