Ending violence against women
The first section of this book examines definitions of violence against women. It discusses responses to violence that are based on human rights approaches, and asks why - until recently - development organisations have failed to use strategies to counter violence against women and to support the victims. The second section focuses on possible strategies for governments and NGO's. Case studies drawn from over 30 countries worldwide, from times of peace and armed conflict, illustrate the possibilities and pitfalls of different strategies and interventions.

Sexual violence in armed conflict
This research demonstrates the scope and magnitude of sexual violence in armed conflict. In its first part, the global overview, the report profiles documented conflict-related sexual violence in 51 countries – in Africa, the Americas, Asia, Europe and the Middle East - that have experienced armed conflict over the past twenty years. The second part of the report, 'Implications for the security sector', explores strategies for security and justice actors to prevent and respond to sexual violence in armed conflict and post-conflict situations.
