In the present report, the Independent Expert on protection against violence and discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity, Victor MadrigalBorloz, addresses the call for greater awareness of how gender and sexual orientation and gender identity dynamics operate in the context of armed conflict, and within peacebuilding and peacekeeping. In the report, he aims to provide insight on the application of a comprehensive set of legal resources to foster prevention, participation, protection, relief and sustainable peace for persons, communities and peoples suffering violence and discrimination in war-torn contexts around the world. The Independent Expert seeks to establish a basis for expanding existing policies within the United Nations system to promote compliance by State and non-State actors
