Sexual Violence in International Armed Conflict
Domestic and international armed conflicts are causing chaos and an increase in crime. Meanwhile, one of the most important of these crimes is sexual violence against women, who are more vulnerable than men because they are more vulnerable. In this regard, despite numerous UN resolutions and international conventions, the rate of these crimes has not decreased and has even been committed by UN peacekeepers. Therefore, the main challenge of this study, after explaining the concept of sexual violence, is its place in international laws and regulations, as well as the causes of recurrence of this violence and the study of prevention strategies. At the end of this study, it will be showed that, despite great efforts and strides in international instruments, the International Criminal Tribunals for the former Yugoslavia and Rwanda and the Statute of the International Criminal Court, there is still insufficient access to justice for women and children and even men victims of sexual violence. At the same time, there are many legal loopholes in international instruments criminalizing sexual violence, and the lack of adequate training of UN peacekeepers and the low number of women is another challenge.
