Its mission is to enhance access to reparations for survivors of conflict-related sexual violence around the globe, thus responding to a gap identified by survivors. GSF acts to provide interim reparative measures in situations where States or other duty bearers are unable or unwilling to meet their responsibilities or reparation where States are willing to act on that responsibility.
