Unmasking the Horrors of Conflict-Related Sexual Violence: In the Tigray Conflict
Description
ABSTRACTThe Tigray conflict, which erupted in November 2020, has inflicted profound human suffering, with one of the most distressing dimensions being Conflict-Related Sexual and Gender-Based Violence (CR-SGBV). This thesis aims to provide a meticulous exploration of the background, prevalence, and ramifications of CR-SGBV in the Tigray region, shedding light on the experiences of survivors, the tactics employed, and the inadequacies of response mechanisms. It also delves into the implications for international humanitarian law, the role of armed forces, and the urgent need for accountability and redress.
