Developed in 2009 with support from UN Action Against Sexual Violence in Conflict (UN Action), this executive summary presents the Comprehensive Strategy for addressing conflict-related sexual violence (CRVS) in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC).
The framework brings together UN entities, government partners, and civil society around four strategic pillars: prevention and protection, survivor assistance, security sector reform, and combating impunity. The strategy established a coordinated platform for action and laid the foundation for stronger implementation, accountability, and support for survivors.
