A new report presented by Reem Alsalem, UN Special Rapporteur on violence against women and girls, warns that states are failing to address both persistent and newly emerging forms of sex-based violence, including in relation to gender ideology.
The report, entitled ‘Sex-based violence against women and girls: new frontiers and emerging issues’, urges governments to reaffirm legal protections for women and girls based on their female biological sex, in accordance with their international human rights obligations.
