Comments on the development of a revised policy on sexual and gender-based crimes: Submission from UN Women to the Office of the Prosecutor at the International Criminal Court

Publication year: 2023

This UN Women submission was prepared in response to a call for inputs in May 2023 from the Office of the Prosecutor at the International Criminal Court to support the renewal of the “Policy paper on sexual and gender-based crimes”.

UN Women’s inputs focus on five suggestions:

  1. Strengthen the gender analysis framework.
  2. Differentiate between gender-based crimes and sexual crimes.
  3. Include people of diverse sexual orientations, gender identities and expressions, and sex characteristics, and devise specific measures for addressing male experiences.
  4. Further develop a survivor-centred approach.
  5. Formulate an implementation plan and monitoring framework with targets.
