Ukraine has set a world precedent in fighting for justice and reparation for survivors of conflict-related sexual violence (CRSV).
This panel, co-organized with the Global Survivors Fund, brings together four leading voices who work on ensuring accountability and reparation for CRSV in Ukraine.
They will share their views and reflections on the measures implemented by the government on the topic of conflict-related sexual violence, the role of civil society and survivors, as well as challenges to fulfil the right to justice and obtain truth and reparation.
Refreshments will be served after the event.

It is primarily a legal reference source for a broad audience, including non-specialists, interested in issues surrounding the classification of armed conflicts under IHL.
