Gender-related killings of women 2012, para. 86
Paragraph- Paragraph text
- The rights of women and girls to be informed about and provided with access to the mechanisms of justice and effective remedies are also contained within international human rights law. As noted by the Special Rapporteur: "the obligation to provide adequate reparations involves ensuring the rights of women to access both criminal and civil remedies and the establishment of effective protection, support and rehabilitation services for survivors of violence". The General Assembly has repeatedly urged Member States to take action towards this end by means of a more systematic, comprehensive, multisectoral and sustained approach, adequately supported and facilitated by strong institutional mechanisms and financing, through national action plans; and to ensure that all human rights and fundamental freedoms are respected and protected.
