Abstract(s)
This report presents the findings of a study launched following Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine on 24 February 2022, which led to a displacement of an unprecedented scale and forced over 8 million people – mostly women and children – to flee Ukraine and seek refuge and protection across Europe (United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) data, as of 9 May 2023). The overarching objective of this report is to assess the availability of specialised services available in the European Union for victims of conflict-related sexual violence (CRSV). More specifically, the report aims to identify gaps in the provision of sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services and offers recommendations to ensure that victims of CRSV enjoy immediate access to them. This three-phase study comprised desk research, an EU-wide questionnaire completed by 26 experts representing EU Member States and 12 follow-up interviews with representatives of relevant NGOs and public bodies conducted in four of the Member States: Czechia, Germany, Poland and Slovakia.
