US would affirm its commitment to end sexual violence in conflicts and support survivors.
The House of Representatives would formally declare the US government's commitment to prevent and respond to sexual violence in conflicts worldwide. It would call for stronger justice for survivors and ensure those who commit these acts are held accountable in peace processes. This comes as conflict-related sexual violence increased by 50% in 2023, with many cases going unreported.
Today, conflict-related sexual violence continues globally with little punishment, with 3,688 verified cases in 2023, a 50% increase from previous reporting. Many prevention measures are not fully carried out. If this resolution passes, the House of Representatives would formally declare the US government's commitment to prevent and respond to this violence, call for stronger justice for survivors, and push for accountability for perpetrators in peace processes.
