Most profoundly, we believe, the symposium produced many unanswered questions. Rather than viewing this as an obstacle, we believe this is a deeply significant factor. We believe that too much wrong has been done in the name of easy solutions without enough questions. In a similar spirit, we were particular about inviting delegates from ICC situation countries and other contexts where recent developments in transitional justice have occurred. We were privileged to be joined by survivors of sexual and gender-based violence, lawyers, prosecutors, academics, civil society actors, and activists from Chad, Kenya, Côte d’Ivoire, Uganda, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, who generously shared their insights, research, and experiences. At the same time, we sought to reject the patriarchal distinctions between war and peace in recognition of the fact that sexual violence is a global phenomenon, and we self-consciously included presenters on contexts that were not explicitly situations of war, armed conflict, or mass violation, to challenge these methodological distinctions and in acknowledgement of the fact that, regardless of the existence of armed hostilities, a global war on the bodies of women and people of marginalised sexual identities exists perpetually. survivors of these different approaches. Ultimately, here, it was emphasised by many participants that the homogenisation of victims and their preferences often advocated by those of us who hold positions of power can be violent, and that truly victim-centric justice requires listening to what victims want from a justice process – which may also include approaches that practitioners, prosecutors, activists or academics focusing on particular individual mechanisms are not themselves advocating. Finally, we were deliberately interdisciplinary, and included those who advocate different approaches to addressing sexual and genderbased violence methodologically and practically. In many respects, with the advent of the Women, Peace and Security Agenda, as well as the work of the ICC, a prosecution-centric approach to gender-based violence has proliferated globally. We were delighted to include approaches that focus on prosecution, but also looked at other approaches, including those focused on restorative justice, reparative justice, memorialisation, and communal accountability, and the interactions between processes. In this regard, we were able to examine unintended consequences, narratives, inclusions, exclusions and impacts on victims and Most profoundly, we believe, the symposium produced many unanswered questions. Rather than viewing this as an obstacle, we believe this is a deeply significant factor. We believe that too much wrong has been done in the name of easy solutions without enough questions. As such, we present 46 questions that emerged in the course of the symposium at the end of this report. Some of them are partially answered in the report’s sections on the various presentations. Many are unanswered. We hope you, our readers, will take them up. In this way, we hope the symposium and its report will function as a series of thoughts, possible directions, and question marks in a broader and ongoing push for justice for sexual and gender-based violence. We believe that the result was a profoundly engaging, at times difficult, and altogether inspiring series of discussions. The richness of the presentations, the openness, and the challenging feminist space made for what we believe to be important conversations, observations of several serious gaps in current approaches, and a celebration of the successes of many in the room who have been working tirelessly for justice.
