answer text <p>The Global Summit to End Sexual Violence in Conflict had two primary objectives: to agree practical action to tackle impunity for the use of rape as a weapon of war, and to begin to shift global attitudes to these crimes. The Summit resulted in a number of practical outcomes and commitments, including the launch of the new International Protocol on the Documentation and Investigation of Sexual Violence in Conflict, various national action plans and strategies to address the issue, and the provision of additional support to survivors and organisations working with them. Our focus is now on implementing these outcomes.</p><p>The report from the Summit was published online on 10 December. It includes details of the commitments made at the Summit. We will continue to update Parliament on progress.</p> more like this
