At Women’s Initiatives for Gender Justice (WIGJ), we remain committed to supporting survivor-activists and advancing gender-responsive justice at local and international levels.
We continue to provide practical resources to support survivor-activists and advocates navigating complex legal and advocacy environments. Our multilingual toolkit — including flyers, frequently asked questions, case studies, calls to action, and an advocacy guide — remains available in English, Spanish, Arabic, French, Georgian, and Russian at www.thehagueprinciples.org. Ukrainian translations of The Hague Principles on Sexual Violence, along with selected case studies and flyers, are also accessible, supporting survivor-centred advocacy in conflict-affected contexts.
As part of strengthening survivor participation within this project, we are currently developing a survivor engagement protocol. This guidance is designed to ensure that all interactions with survivors—whether in events, conferences, trainings, or consultations—are conducted in a safe, ethical, and survivor-centred manner. It aims to support meaningful participation while safeguarding dignity, agency, and well-being.
In addition to these efforts, WIGJ contributed to ongoing global standard-setting processes. We made a submission to the UN Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) in the context of its work on updating General Recommendation No. 30 on women in conflict prevention and post-conflict situations. Our contribution emphasised the importance of survivor-centred approaches to justice, ensuring that lived experiences are reflected in the development of international legal and policy frameworks.
These activities reflect the same commitment that underpins this project: ensuring that survivors are not only supported, but recognised as experts whose voices shape justice outcomes.
Thank you for your continued support. Your contributions help sustain survivor-led advocacy, strengthen legal responses to sexual violence, and advance a more just and equitable world where survivors’ rights and experiences are central.
