From the venue:
In May 2012, the UK Foreign Secretary, William Hague, and the Special Envoy of the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, Angelina Jolie, launched the Preventing Sexual Violence Initiative, with the goal to end the culture of impunity surrounding the use of sexual violence both as a tool and a side effect of war worldwide. The British Consulate General in Atlanta is building on the momentum from the Global Summit in London to draw attention to sexual violence in conflict and how it relates to Atlanta, recently rated the sex trafficking capital of the US.
