Співробітник/ця з проєктів / Project Associate (ПРООН)

Since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine by the Russian Federation on February 24th, 2022, there have been evidences and reports of numerous war crimes, crimes against humanity and other related serious violations of international humanitarian law and human rights law. Such crimes include significant number of acts of conflict-related sexual violence (CRSV) against women, men, girls, and boys, which is expected to further grow as the armed conflict continues and more evidence, survivors’ accounts, reports, and allegations come to be known.

Investigation, prosecution, and trial for the CRSV crimes in Ukraine entail and pose numerous and significant challenges for the country’s justice and law enforcement authorities — from all the sensitivities concerning reporting of such crimes and interviewing survivors and witnesses, to legal and practical specifics of processing CRSV as criminal offence, to the growing caseload volume in parallel with many other war crimes and conflict-related human rights violations and associated consequences for individuals and the population as a whole.

In response to the situation and challenges indicated above, UNDP in Ukraine is committed to strengthen national criminal accountability mechanisms for CRSV by improving legal and policy framework as well as capacity development of the Ukrainian institutions to conduct effective, victim/survivors-centred, gender-sensitive, and trauma-informed investigations and criminal processing of CRSV.
