For victims of conflict-related sexual violence, journeys to justice are too often long, painful and unfruitful.
But creativity in policymaking has the power to transform access to justice and strengthen accountability for perpetrators.

Thomas Kwoyelo, Ugandan Lord’s Resistance Army's ex-commander, was recently sentenced to a 40-year jail term for having committed international crimes, incl. war crimes and crimes against humanity, during the Lord’s Resistance Army insurgency against the Government of #Uganda.

Today, we celebrate the incredible contributions of women across the globe, particularly in pioneering advancements within frontier technologies. This year's theme, ‘Investing in Women’, resonates deeply as we acknowledge the transformative impact of female-led initiatives.

In July 2022, FCDO advisor @JayeHo22 was selected by the Frontier Tech Hub to explore the role of AR&VR in international courts.
We hope this week at the @IntlCrimCourt was just the beginning of the conversation 🚀

It is vital that States take responsibility to end conflict related sexual violence.
This is why 🇬🇧 funding supports @MukwegeFound to improve States’ understanding of their obligations to survivors and to hold perpetrators to account.

Survivors’ needs must be at the heart of our work on preventing sexual violence in conflict.
I was in New York for a meeting of the PSVI International Alliance.
👇🏽 Here’s why it’s vital. 👇🏽

Today I am chairing the #UNSC meeting on conflict-related sexual violence.
I’m grateful to the brave briefers who are speaking of their experiences in Myanmar & DRC.
We must listen to survivors if we are to eliminate conflict-related sexual violence. We owe it to them to do more.
Today in the Council, the UK’s @tariqahmadbt is chairing the open debate on conflict-related sexual violence.
We will hear from a human rights defender from Myanmar and a survivor and activist from DRC, now living in the UK.

The UK 🇬🇧 is taking bold steps to consign sexual violence in conflict to the history books.
On this International Day for the Elimination of Sexual Violence in Conflict, I’ve announced sanctions to hold perpetrators accountable.

Accountability and justice dispensed by independent judges in fair evidence based trials is an essential right. So many, in all parts of our world, look for it, pray for it and are waiting. We simply must do better together to make it felt. We must not become anaesthetised to suffering, pain and the yearning for a better, less brutal tomorrow. Thank you @NadiaMuradBasee for your stamina, unbelievable courage and determined leadership. With heartfelt condolences. @nadiainitiative @AbidShamdeen. May the souls of all your departed loved ones be at peace.

My niece, Katherine and I, along with thousands of Yazidi women and girls, were taken into captivity by ISIS in 2014.
When she was separated from me in Mosul, I didn't get a chance to say goodbye to her.
Katherine and other women were held captive by Aslam Taha Al Ubaidi, an Iraqi doctor who had joined ISIS. This terrorist, along with others, was responsible for raping and enslaving Katherine and her friends.
Katherine attempted to escape more than five times, but the families in Hawija turned her back to ISIS.
She kept Almas, a nine-year-old Yazidi girl, with her, and her biggest wish was to save Almas and bring her to safety.
Katherine and two of her friends tried to escape and run away from their captors in 2016. Before they could reach safety, Katherine and Almas were killed by explosives, and their friend Lamya was critically wounded.
Seven years later, today, Katherine and Alma's remains were exhumed.
