UN Action Against Sexual

Violence In Conflict

 

A cross-UN initiative, the UN Action Against Sexual Violence in Conflict, is committed to prevent all forms of gender-based violence, including sexual violence, in conflict and to support survivors.

 

Twelve UN entities have partnered in the UN Action initiative.

 

The UN Action Against Sexual Violence in Conflict will work with national governments and NGO partners to:

 

*Generate public awareness on the growing use of sexual violence as a weapon of warfare, and how to prevent it;

 

*End impunity for perpetrators of sexual violence in conflict;

 

*Improve and scale up services for survivors;

 

*Address the longer term impacts of sexual violence on communities and national development.
