Criminal justice and legal responses to sexual violence have long featured in academic and policy debates. Yet, despite a raft of substantive and procedural reforms, there continues to be evidence of steep attrition in sexual offences cases, as well as secondary victimisation experienced by complainants. Indeed, recent consultations and reviews conducted across a number of jurisdictions, including England and Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, have highlighted the complexity of prosecuting crimes of sexual violence and the further widespread reforms that may be required. It is thus time to critically reflect on the myriad of reforms and recommendations that have been discussed in the context of contemporary legal and policy responses to investigating and prosecuting sexual violence, at both the level of theory and praxis.

This two-day conference is dedicated to an in-depth multi-jurisdictional discussion of the ongoing complexities surrounding reform in this area. It will bring together scholars and practitioners engaged in cutting edge research to reflect upon recent progress, share their expertise, and discuss best practice.
