First, with respect to the lack of information, as the observer of the European Union has stated, we need to enhance data sharing, which can provide critical support for the advancement of the agenda by providing a clearer picture of the reality on the ground and subsequently by exerting political pressure where needed. Secondly, with respect to the lack of accountability and the persistent impunity of perpetrators, reversing the social dynamics so that we can move from the stigmatization of the victims to the criminalization of the perpetrators is an attainable goal. In that fight, the International Criminal Court has a unique role to play in complementing the efforts of national courts when they are unable or unwilling to bring perpetrators to justice. That is an aspect that we tend to overlook and which does not always clearly emerge in United Nations reporting.
