Conflict-related Male Sexual Violence and the International Criminal Jurisprudence: Where have we been? Where are we today? Where do we need to go?

Description

I was invited to give a presentation on the legally significant, yet insufficient and unevenly developed conflict-related male sexual violence jurisprudence rendered by the modern international courts. This is the third Missing Peace Symposium since the inaugural event in Washington, USA in 2013 and the second event in Kampala, Uganda in 2015. This symposium is part of the larger Missing Peace Initiative, which is a project of the United States Institute of Peace (USIP), the Human Rights Center at the University of California, Berkeley, the Peace Research Institute Oslo (PRIO), and Women In International Security (WIIS). It brings together expert scholars, policymakers, practitioners, and military and civil society actors to examine the issue of sexual violence in conflict and post-conflict settings, identify gaps in knowledge and reporting and explore how to increase the effectiveness of current responses to such violence.
