On this occasion of the International Day for the Elimination of Sexual Violence in Conflict, the Refugee Law Project (RLP) joins the global community in remembrance, renewed advocacy, and collective condemnation of the persistent use of sexual violence as a tool for executing war. Conflict-Related Sexual Violence (CRSV) including but not limited to rape, sexual slavery, forced marriage, forced sterilization, and abduction for sexual exploitation continue to create deep lasting personal and intergenerational wounds and scars in the bodies, minds, and future of CRSV survivors across the world.
