In December , the Women\u2019s International War Crimes Tribunal is celebrating its 20th anniversary. In honor of this, we are having an international symposium with support groups and \u201dcomfort women\u201d \/wartime sexual violence survivors from Korea,China,Taiwan , Philippines , Indonesia and East Timor.

Since the association with VAWW-Net Japan (now VAWW RAC) and support groups from the affected countries, the tribunal was convened in Tokyo. The tribunal was hold with the member of 64 victim women , prosecutors\/women\u2019s organizations from 8 countries and global citizens.
The purpose of the tribunal was to respond to the victims\u2019 demands for justice and to use evidence from Japanese perpetrators to prevent further unpunished sexual violence ( which still exists now). The tribunal judged the perpetrators of Japanese military sexual slavery under international law based on the evidence. In the final judgement, the court explicitly found that the Japanese military and government had \u201cperpetrated rape and sexual slavery as crimes against humanity \u201d.

Twenty years later, the issue of \u201ccomfort women\u201d remains unsolved, and unpunished sexual violence and hate speech against other ethnic groups are still very serious in Japan. Meanwhile, the #MeToo movement and the Black Lives Matter movement are expanding to protest unpunished sexual violence and slavery\/colonialism around the world.
The symposium is a good opportunity to reflect on the tribunal and to pass on the verdict and testimonies to future generations by hearing directly from survivors in various countries. We hope you will join us. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
