What is the Justice Denied: Fighting Widespread Impunity for Conflict-Related Sexual Violence (CRSV) Conference?

The Justice Denied: Fighting Widespread Impunity for Conflict-Related Sexual Violence (CRSV) international conference, convened by the Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for the Elimination of Violence Against Women (CEVAW) and the Australian Institute of International Affairs Victoria (AIIA VIC), is the first of its kind in the Indo-Pacific region.

The Justice Denied conference will build on the international consensus forged in state commitments to the PSVI and the Women, Peace and Security (WPS) agenda to prohibit sexual violence in conflict. It will focus on the CRSV implementation agenda to overcome the challenges of ending impunity. The conference will address diverse conflicts to explore patterns of violence and understand why impunity for CRSV is widely accepted by many with authority to end it.

2-3 June, 2025, Melbourne, Australia.
