A SUMMARY OF INTERNATIONAL HUMAN RIGHTS LAW AND ITS CURRENT WEAKNESSES AS A POTENTIAL FOR THE PROTECTION OF WOMEN AGAINST GENDER-BASED VIOLENCE-NEW CONVENTION ON GENDER-BASED VIOLENCE

Summary/Abstract: Throughout history, various forms of violence have manifested themselves in society as a result of the dominance of certain sectors or groups over others. In this context, gender-based violence is a key social mechanism for perpetuating women's subordination, because male hegemony—power considered the generic inheritance of men—is based on social control over women. Therefore, violations of women's human rights are directly or indirectly related to the gender system and mainstream cultural values. According to the terms of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights; International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights; International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights; Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment; and the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women, women enjoy the same rights and freedoms as men and autonomy. Gender-based violence, the protection of victims - survivors, the punishment of perpetrators of this type of violence and the support of survivors is one of the most controversial issues. at the international level in recent times. Along with the lines of discussion that follow, this paper argues that in an effort to strengthen existing frameworks, it is important to recognize that existing international human rights law already imposes broad and detailed obligations on states in relation to gender violence. and that proposals for a new instrument and other measures should not undermine but rather complement existing protection. He argued that greater efforts should be made to invoke and enforce existing standards, regardless of the position adopted on the desirability of a new treaty. The question that naturally arises is whether the new convention provides an overview of the role played by international law and its practice in advancing efforts to protect women from gender-based violence, so is a new convention desirable? , what measures might be applied if such an instrument were to be approved, and how it might be properly accomplished.
