OSCE-led Survey on Violence Against Women - Violence Against Women in Conflict Thematic Report

This report explores the ways in which women have been directly affected by conflict and experiences of VAW in the context of conflict versus non-conflict settings. It provides an overview of the prevalence, forms and nature of conflict-related violence in the region covered by the OSCE-led survey. The data collected provides information about the prevalence of conflict-related incidents of physical and sexual violence, sexual harassment and stalking in pre-conflict settings, during conflict and in post-conflict situations. This data had never been collected in the OSCE region before, and this report will feed into the OSCE’s work on conflict early warning.
