<p>As stated in my [Minister Adams] answer to PQ 31501, the UK is fully committed
to supporting all survivors of conflict-related sexual violence, and follows a survivor-centred
approach. We recognise that women from minority religious communities can often suffer
in situations of conflict because of both their gender and their faith. That is why
we ensure that our human rights policy work considers the intersectionality of human
rights, and the importance of addressing the specific vulnerabilities experienced
by women from religious minority communities. Examples of our work include strengthening
access to justice for survivors through training faith and belief groups on how to
document and respond to sexual violence within their communities, and providing greater
support and access to holistic care for children born of conflict-related sexual violence.</p>
