“There should be no mistake. Promoting the protection of civilians in armed conflict is no sideshow to the [Security] Council’s mandate for ensuring international peace and security; it is central to it.

Job title: Women’s Protection Officer

“While Côte d’Ivoire is no longer in a conflict situation, a lot of terrible things happened during that time. We continue to receive reports of sexual violence from the conflict. Somebody needs to listen and follow up on the cases. I am fortunate to work with national and international partners who are so committed to the cause of getting justice or redress for every victim. All of us realise that it is only by working together that we can make a difference.”
