negate the roles of other approaches?
How do we retain the humility and
accountability to recognise that sexual and
gender-based violence is a complex problem,
with heterogeneous victims and survivors and
multiple experiences? How do we ensure that
we do not allow our lenses and frameworks
to crowd out the needs and preferences
of victims?
30. What role might communal accountability
play in addressing sexual and gender-based
violence as has been the case in certain
contexts in Iraq and South Sudan?
31. To what extent do the temporal limitations
of international criminal justice preclude
consideration of historical antecedents to
both conflict and the societal and global
norms that give rise to the proliferation of
sexual and gender-based violence? Can we
address sexual and gender-based violence
in conflict without a consideration of sexual
and gender-based violence before conflict?
32. In light of the broad networks of complicity
in many contemporary and historical conflicts,
how might justice mechanisms address
corporate complicity in conflict? Which
mechanisms or courts are best placed
to address this? Should courts in the host
states of multinational corporations bear
responsibility for this accountability?
Should regional and sub-regional courts be
strengthened and capacitated to address
corporate complicity?
33. How might accountability mechanisms better
address sexual and gender-based violence
committed by private military contractors?
34. Was the Hissène Habré case a landmark for
international justice in Africa? To what extent
is the model of the Extraordinary African
Chambers replicable? What logistical, legal,
political and financial issues emerge in
considering it as a model?
35. How might reparation and redress be more
comprehensively considered? How do issues
of land and inheritance interact with some of
the narrower conceptions of reparations that
often dominate reparations discussions in
international criminal justice? How might
broader redress, particularly in the context of
sexual and gender-based violence, provide
for greater gender equity and independence
for women? How might adequate attention
to normalised notions of gender and sexual
violence prior to conflict shift approaches to
reparations?
36. Who is left out in contemporary approaches
to justice?
Relationships with and disruptions
of patriarchy
37. How does the way in which sexual and
gender-based violence are discussed reflect
patriarchal conceptions?
38. How does cultural context interact with sexual
violence? How does globalised rape culture
interact with the various contexts in which
accountability processes are playing out?
39. How is sexual and gender-based violence
normalised in societies? How does this interact
with the concepts of war and peace, and how
helpful are the distinctions between war and
peace in light of this?
40. How do the distinctions between war and
peace reflect patriarchal framings? If sexual
and gender-based violence is an ongoing
physical, mental and psychological war
on the bodies of women and people with
marginalised gender identities, how is framing
conflict in relation to the commencement
of cessation of armed hostilities reflective
of conflict?
Questions of efficacy and process
41. How might reparations be made more of
a priority in international justice? What is
required to promote efficiency in terms
of reparations?
42. In some contexts, as was the case in Rwanda,
the numbers of victims and perpetrators
are so expansive that institutions struggle
to prosecute. How can international criminal
justice respond to this problem? How can
domestic jurisdictions respond to this
problem? What other mechanisms or
processes might be engaged in addressing
contexts of such high incidences of sexual
and gender-based violence?
