The first 2013 issue of the GPS Update features a report from the Missing Peace Symposium 2013, which took place in February at the United States Institute of Peace (USIP) in Washington, DC. This three-day symposium brought together more than 200 academics, practitioners and policy makers from around the world to discuss sexual violence in conflict and post-conflict settings. The GPS update also features reports on relevant seminars, reports and policy briefs, as well as a list of new publications which might be of interest to our readership.
