This report presents the findings from a two-day research dialogue workshop conducted in November 2025 in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea. This dialogue workshop was suggested after the CEVAW Justice Denied conference was convened in June 2025, where the focus was on impunity for conflict-related sexual violence across the Indo-Pacific. It was suggested that Papua New Guinea is an important, yet neglected case of conflict-related sexual violence (CRSV) in United Nations reports and assessments of high risk CRSV locations despite documented sexual and gender-based violence in association with tribal conflicts, elections, and land disputes.
This report draws together the key findings from the three-stage evaluation of the training program and provides recommendations from across the three stages of the evaluation.
