A/HRC/16/34 E/CN.6/2011/9 Improving access for survivors, developing the capacities of key policy and service delivery institutions 45. A major focus of UNIFEM work has centred on access to justice for survivors. Highlights include the continued support of UNIFEM in Argentina, along with UNDP and UNICEF, to the newly created Office of Domestic Violence of the Supreme Court — the first of its kind at the national level. The Office assists women survivors of violence with services, including referrals to civil or penal courts and health and social services. The court is responsible for tracking and assessing the cases, to provide data in order to analyse patterns of impunity and the judiciary’s response to gender-based violence cases. In Thailand, training of judicial staff is aiming to strengthen enforcement of the Domestic Violence Act; the rearrangement of courtrooms using partitions and cameras now also protects survivors from directly encountering their perpetrators. Support to the legal system of Nigeria has resulted in a handbook entitled “Access to justice for trafficked persons”, which serves as a guide for taking cases through the legal system, from the identification of a potentially trafficked person until the case is closed. 46. UNIFEM also contributed to improved policies and service delivery for women survivors of violence in various countries, such as through its work with national women’s machineries in Ghana, Liberia and Peru; to increased access to legal assistance in Ethiopia, Fiji and the Occupied Palestinian Territories; and to a strengthened police response in Nigeria. UNIFEM also partnered with excluded groups of women to hold policymakers accountable to eliminate violence, including indigenous women, HIV-positive women’s networks; young women and migrant women workers from Africa, Asia, the Commonwealth of Independent States and Latin America and the Caribbean. The Stop Violence against Women in the Economic Community of West African States Subregion initiative engages women’s national machineries, religious leaders, the Association of Women Lawyers and rural women’s platforms, thus contributing to the implementation of the Africa component of the Secretary-General’s UNiTE campaign. 47. Also in line with the UNiTE campaign, UNIFEM provided technical and financial assistance to the high-level International Conference on the Role of Security Organs in Ending Violence against Women and Girls, held in Kigali in October 2010 and hosted by the Rwanda National Police and Rwanda Defence Forces Gender Desk in partnership with “One United Nations”. The Conference was attended by police chiefs, senior police and military officers responsible for gender and community policing affairs, as well as members of civil society organizations, the United Nations system, and academia involved from different countries both within and outside Africa. The Kigali Declaration on Ending Violence against Women and Girls, adopted at the event, reaffirmed the commitments for action and the efforts to continue building on best practice to expand justice and services for survivors in the continent. 48. In terms of support for capacity development at the global level, during the Commission on the Status of Women in March 2010, UNIFEM launched a unique online resource for service providers, programmers, policymakers and advocates that provides ready access to the state-of-the-art on “what works best” to address gender-based violence: the Virtual Knowledge Centre to End Violence against Women and Girls (see http://www.endvawnow.org).
