The book « Droit international et violences sexuelles dans les conflits armés » (“International Law and Sexual Violence in Armed Conflict”) under the scientific direction of Bérangère TAXIL, Isabelle Fouchard and Coralie Klipfel is now available for a pre-ordered online (Release date: 16 July 2024).

The books conclusion includes a summary of the round table discussion held at the University of Angers during the biennial session of the Institut du Droit International (IDI) to mark its 150th anniversary themed “strategic litigation in the face of mass crimes” to which our partner Pierre-Olivier Savoie contributed to. During this round table were raised questions of prosecutions, reparations, mass claims, etc., in respect of human rights. Speakers answered these questions by examining the workings of international justice, the powers of States, the strategies developed by NGOs to ensure justice, and the reparations available to victims.

Many thanks once more to Bérangère Taxil, Isabelle Fouchard, Coralie Klipfel and all the participants from the round table for the preparation of the report.
