In 🇰🇪Nairobi, prosecutors, legal practitioners, and international experts from across Africa came together for the first Regional Conference on Accountability for Conflict-Related Sexual Violence, hosted by the 🇺🇳 @UN Team of Experts on the Rule of Law and Sexual Violence in Conflict.
More than a conference, this gathering reflected a shared commitment to strengthening justice systems, enhancing regional cooperation, and ensuring survivor-centered accountability for conflict-related sexual violence.
Every person in this photo 📷 represents an important step toward a future where survivors are heard, perpetrators are held accountable, and impunity has no place.
Justice requires action. Accountability requires partnership. The work continues.
