This guidance note from UN Action Against Sexual Violence in Conflict provides practical recommendations for developing and implementing comprehensive, multi-sectoral strategies to prevent and respond to conflict-related sexual violence (CRSV). It outlines key benchmarks, strategic pillars, implementation steps, monitoring frameworks, and lessons learned from country experiences including the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Côte d’Ivoire, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Guinea, and Liberia, where, with the support of UN Action, such strategies have already been developed and/or implemented.
