United Nations Action against Sexual Violence in Conflict
UN Action serves as the global knowledge hub on conflict-related sexual violence. Leveraging the expertise and experience from its 26 member entities, it develops new, gap-filing, knowledge, guidance, and tools to support practitioners, policymakers, and others to respond to conflict-related sexual violence and disseminates/socialises this knowledge for practical implementation. Thematic areas include: trafficking-in-persons and conflict-related sexual violence, mental health and psychosocial support to survivors of conflict-related sexual violence, economic empowerment for survivors and communities affected by sexual violence, implementing the conflict-related sexual violence mandate in the wake of mission transitions and drawdowns, and what it means to take a survivor-centred approach to CRSV. UN Action has also provided trainings on the prevention and response to conflict-related sexual violence on an ad-hoc basis.
