In 1991, in order to publicize Japan’s regime of enforced prostitution during the Second World War, activists started to collect data about the women victims of sexual slavery. After 50 years of silence, women survivors, in their 70s and 80s, came forward to demand justice and redress. One of the main outcomes of this lengthy and sustained documentation work was the Women’s International War Crimes Tribunal on Japanese Military Sexual Slavery. The Tokyo Tribunal, as it came to be called, was held in December 2000 in Tokyo. The Tribunal was attended by 70 victims and more than 1100 participants. The final judgment was passed in December 2001, at a Women’sInternational Tribunal held in The Hague, Netherlands. 1, record 3, English, - Women%27s%20International%20War%20Crimes%20Tribunal%20on%20Japanese%20Military%20Sexual%20Slavery

En 1991, des militantes désireuses de dénoncer le régime de prostitution forcée institué par l'armée nippone pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale ont commencé à recueillir des données sur les femmes victimes d’esclavage sexuel. Après un demi sièclede silence, des survivantes désormais septuagénaires ou octogénaires sont sorties de l'ombre pour réclamer justice et réparation. Ce travail de longue haleine a notamment débouché sur l'organisation du Tribunal international des femmes sur les crimes de guerre et l'esclavage sexuel perpétré par l'armée japonaise. Le Tribunal de Tokyo, comme on l'appelle, a réuni 70 victimes et plus de 1100 participantes en décembre 2000. Le jugement final a été rendu en décembre 2001 à l'occasion d’un tribunal international de femmes organisé à La Haye, aux Pays-Bas. 1, record 3, French, - Tribunal%20international%20des%20femmes%20sur%20les%20crimes%20de%20guerre%20et%20l%27esclavage%20sexuel%20perp%C3%A9tr%C3%A9%20par%20l%27arm%C3%A9e%20japonaise
