The part voted on: ‘stress the importance of adopting consent-based rape legislation as an essential element of a comprehensive approach to combating sexual violence against women and girls; advocate for a consent-based definition of rape as a universal standard worldwide, aimed at enhancing legal protections and ensuring that sexual violence is defined by the absence of consent, rather than solely by the use of violence, coercion or threat; promote the concept that the silence of, and absence of resistance by, the victims do not constitute consent; underline that neither prior consent nor an existing relationship imply ongoing or future consent for any sexual acts; call, in this regard, on all countries to introduce a consent-based definition of rape and to guarantee survivors access to justice;’
