The extent of conflict-related sexual violence against men & boys spotlighted in @nbstv interview, highlights how responding appropriately (medically, legally) is a wise strategy to end impunity enjoyed by perpetrators seeking to inflict long term & destabilising trauma

Responding to WIJG campaign, Prof @anniebunting asks ‘why is it imp to call sexual violence ‘what it is’? @DrChrisDolan recognizes the fluidity of the term and so need to keep the definition open. What does it mean when a survivor does not call it what it is? #SVAgenda @JJWangui
