The International Day for the Elimination of Sexual Violence in Conflict is observed annually on June 19, commemorating the adoption of the first Security Council resolution recognizing conflict-related sexual violence as a tactic of war and a threat to international peace and security (as outlined in United Nations Security Council Resolution S/RES/1820 of 2008). Acknowledging that fragmented prevention and response efforts posed challenges in addressing conflict-related sexual violence, the Secretary-General’s Policy Committee endorsed Action as a crucial joint initiative within the UN system. This initiative aims to guide advocacy, knowledge-building, resource mobilization, and collaborative programming focused on sexual violence in conflict. Additionally, the network seeks to eliminate gaps and redundancies in responding to conflict-related sexual violence caused by the absence of a central coordination system.
