Abstract
On 1 March 2023, International Criminal Court (ICC) Special Advisor on Gender Persecution, Professor Lisa Davis, joined Dr. Rosemary Grey at the University of Sydney to discuss the recently released Policy on the Crime of Gender Persecution. The conversation explored the creation of the Policy, including the historical deficit that led to its need. Touching on the current cases before the ICC, Davis and Grey also contemplated the charge of the crime of gender persecution in potential future cases before the ICC or other jurisdictions. Reflecting upon the conversation, this article considers the practical, ideological and legal implications of the Policy as well as offers commentary on the potential challenges and future prospects as the crime of gender persecution is utilised.
