This year marks 30 years since the genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda.

Beginning in April 1994, in 100 days approximately 1 million Tutsis and moderate Hutus were murdered.

It was in 2013 that for the first time, UNSCR 2106 explicitly mentioned men and boys as victims of sexual violence in conflict.
