Sexual and Gender-Based Violence Linked to Terrorism: Civil Society Perspectives (CTED, 2024)

Sexual Violence in Armed Conflict

This report presents insights from civil society organizations supporting victims and survivors of sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) linked to terrorism across multiple regions.

Drawing on consultations convened by the Counter-Terrorism Committee Executive Directorate (CTED) in 2024, it highlights challenges related to justice, accountability, reparations, survivor-centred support, prevention, and technology-facilitated violence. The resource explores how civil society organizations contribute to advancing accountability, improving access to services, addressing stigma, and strengthening responses to SGBV linked to terrorism. It also identifies key gaps in legal frameworks, investigations, prosecutions, and survivor support mechanisms.
