On 29 and 30 September 2025in The Hague, the Gender and International Criminal Law Conference will bring together legal practitioners, scholars, activists, survivors, and policymakers to critically assess and respond to emerging challenges at the intersection of gender justice and international criminal law (ICL).
As obstacles to gender justice escalate in conflict and post-conflict zones around the world and international justice institutions face increasing attacks on their legitimacy and mandates, the need for a space to build resilience, solidarity, and resistance has never been more urgent.
Join us for a two-day conference bringing together over 100 key actors in the field of Gender Justice to confront urgent challenges, foster solidarity, and amplify collective voices.
Through dynamic dialogue and shared strategies, we will advance feminist and intersectional legal approaches that move beyond rhetoric to action. This annual gathering serves as a critical platform to elevate the voices, expertise, and leadership of Global Majority practitioners, advocates, and scholars.
This Conference is co-organized by Legal Action Worldwide (LAW), the Gender Justice Practitioner Hub (GJP Hub), Women’s Initiatives for Gender Justice (WIGJ), and the International Institute of Social Studies (ISS). It is supported by the Global Initiative Against Impunity, the International Gender Champions Network, the Global Justice Center, and UN Women.
The Conference is made possible with the generous support of the Australian Government, with co-funding from the European Union.
Full event details coming soon.
