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.
The extreme gender typology enables theoretically informed and gender-responsive approaches to preventing extremism in policy and practice. The typology encourages systematic gender analysis of existing and potential extremisms to empower policymakers and practitioners to reduce violence and enhance gender equality.
While investigating how extremist currents within Buddhism can be moderated, our research revealed the important role of religion in combatting gender-based violence (GBV) in communities. In Thailand, Sri Lanka and Myanmar, Buddhist supremacist practices in everyday life can enable and exacerbate pervasive and normalised gender-based violence.
