The treatment of women in armed conflict is one of the priorities of the United Nations since the 1995 Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action.

Abstract

The development of International Criminal Law in addressing gender-based crimes has been revolutionary, transitioning from invisibility to a more individualized characterization in the Statute of the International Criminal Court.

This paper critically examines the progress and shortcomings in protecting women's rights in situations of armed conflict, emphasizing the need for more comprehensive and effective measures.
