Syrian Road to Justice

A coalition of Syrian feminist organizations – Badael, Dawlaty, Syrian Female Journalists Network, and Women Now for Development – the campaign advocates for greater legal access to justice for survivors of sexual and gender-based violence (SGV) perpetrated over the past ten years of the Syrian conflict, especially for female survivors of detention who face particular barriers to justice.

The campaign aims to help survivors to tell their stories and inform the public of their experiences to foster a more supportive environment for survivors to speak out and seek justice. Simultaneously, we hope to build public pressure on European countries to invoke the principle of universal jurisdiction and increase their commitment to Syrian demands for access to justice.
