Project number CA-3-P012439001 Maximum contribution $4,272,101 Partner profile The Institute for InternationalCriminal Investigations (IICI) Start - end 2023-03-30 - 2026-03-31 Status Operational The Global Code of Conduct for Gathering and Using Information about Systematic and Conflict-Related Sexual Violence is a code of conduct and standards for the safe, effective and ethical gathering and use of victim or survivor information on systematic and conflict-related sexual violence. A system developed through global consultations, with survivors at the heart of its work. The creation of the Code responds to the proliferation of harmful information-gathering approaches that are not sensitive to survivor trauma, are uncoordinated and are ineffective for documentation purposes. These harmful practices include re-traumatization, personal security, violations of privacy rights, and failed justice outcomes. This Project focuses on building awareness and implementing the Code with key stakeholders, such as investigation authorities, humanitarian actors, civil society, media, policy-makers, governments and other organizations and individuals working on information-gathering with survivors. Using the Code properly means integrating it into systems, processes, policies, contracts and terms of reference of investigation teams. Targeted activities can occur in Colombia, Iraq, Myanmar, Syria and Ukraine, among others. |
