Gender in Justice, Atlantic Initiative Gender in Justice, Atlantic Initiative Projektet bygger vidare på det det tidigare Sida-stödda projektet Gender in Judiciary (2017–2020) och främjar reformer inom Bosniens och Hercegovinas rättsväsende med fokus på jämställdhet. Projektet är ett tvåårigt utfasningsprojekt där Atlantic Initiative ska bygga vidare på resultat och lärdomar från tidigare projekt och verka för att vidareutveckla och engagera rättsväsendet att skapa en levande och dynamisk inlärningsmiljö för jämställdhet. Genom att göra resultat och förändringar mer hållbara över tid i termer av förbättrad utbildning kring jämställdhet inom rättsväsendet, tillhandahållande av vägledning i hur rättsväsendet ska hantera sexuella trakasserier och sexuellt våld, samt att rättsfall som handlar om könsrelaterat våld tas upp på ett rättssäkert sätt, kommer insatsen att bidra till jämställdhet och att könsrelaterat våld bättre omhändertas av rättsväsendet i Bosnien-Hercegovina. The project builds on the previous Sida-supported project Gender in Judiciary (2017–2020) and promotes reforms in the judiciary of Bosnia and Herzegovina with a focus on gender equality. The project is a two-year phasing-out project where the Atlantic Initiative will build on results and lessons learned from previous projects and work to further develop and engage the judiciary to create a vibrant and dynamic learning environment for gender equality. By making the results and changes more sustainable over time, in terms of improved education about gender equality in the judiciary, offering guidance on how the judiciary should deal with sexual harassment and sexual violence, and that cases involving gender-based violence are addressed in a legally secure manner, the project will contribute to gender equality and better addressing gender-based violence in the judiciary in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
