Women facing war

"This ICRC study is an extensive reference document on the impact of armed conflict on the lives of women. Taking as its premise the needs of women, e.g. physical safety, access to health care, food and shelter, in situations of armed conflict, the study explores the problems faced by women in wartime and the coping mechanisms they employ. A thorough analysis of international humanitarian law, and to a lesser extent human rights and refugee law, was carried out as a means to assess the protection afforded to women through these bodies of law. The study also includes a review of the ICRC's operational response to the needs of women as victims of armed conflict."--Publisher.

  • "This study focuses on the principal and most urgent needs of women in situations of armed conflict and analyses the ICRC's response to those needs even when these needs do not fall within the ICRC's mandate. It identifies the applicable law governing situations of armed conflict and uses international humanitarian law as the yardstick for the assessment of ICRC's response. Each section of the study identifying a specific need contains a sub-section on the law that sets out the applicable norms of relevance to that need. In addition to identifying relevant general and specific rules relating to women, the study also outlines rules for the protection of the girl child. It contains an annex on the ICRC response to detained persons in situations of internal violence, an extensive bibliography, a glossary of abbreviations and detailed notes."@en
