Adequacy of the international legal framework on violence against women 2017, para. 32
Párrafo
Paragraph text
Civil society organizations also pointed out that States needed a clear understanding of their obligations with regard to non-compliance and more technical assistance for better implementation. Furthermore, several submissions highlighted that the rules on exhaustion of domestic remedies made it hard for women to seek justice, as exhaustion of domestic remedies could pose problems when a State’s law and policies were inherently arbitrary and unjust towards women. In general, civil society organizations made it clear that rules against gender-based violence had to be settled in a way that all spheres of States clearly understood it, including the economic and policy world, and that the focus should be on bottom-up implementation.
