Promoting Accountability for Conflict-Related Sexual Violence
This memorandum directs federal agencies to use existing sanctions, visa restrictions, security assistance, and diplomatic tools to promote accountability for conflict-related sexual violence (CRSV) worldwide.

Presidential Determination Pursuant to Section 1245(d)(4)(B) and (C) of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012
