Human weapons: Violence against women in conflict zones

Description
Sexual violences on women in conflict settings represent a grave violation of human rights with devastating short- and long-term consequences. In the long term, the lack of accountability and the trauma carried by affected communities can hinder stability and peace processes, perpetrating generational trauma and cycles of violence. Despite increased awareness and international resolutions, challenges persist when it comes to finding effective solutions to counter these practices. Fighting sexual violences in conflict zones should be a priority and it requires united efforts from multiple actors of society. We will delve into what actionable steps can be taken to enhance individual and collective resilience and combat this issue.
