"For the purposes of this paper, conflict-related sexual violence will be referred to within the UN General Assembly's definition of:

 

Incidents or pattens (...) of sexual violence, that is rape, sexual slavery, forced prostitution, forced pregnancy, enforced sterilization or any other form of sexual violence of comparable gravity against women, men, or children. Such incidents or patterns occur in conflict or post-conflict settings or other situations of concern (e.g.political strife). They also have a direct or indirect nexus with the conflict or political strife itself, that is, a temporal, geographical and/or causal link."
