For the timeframe 2020 to present, Brazil does not appear to have an ongoing war or rebel conflict in which rape, kidnapping, or trafficking of women and girls is being used as a weapon of war. There is little to no evidence that the Brazilian government or military accepts or encourages wartime sexual violence, nor clear evidence that subnational rebel armies use rape or kidnapping as a tactic of war against the government. However, Brazil does face serious, non-wartime-related problems involving organized criminal groups, trafficking, forced labor, illegal mining, and sexual exploitation, for which the government has anti-trafficking programs and victim assistance mechanisms.

Variables: GEW-DATA-1
For the timeframe 2020 to present, Brazil does not appear to have an ongoing conventional war, civil war, or rebel conflict in which rape or sexual violence against women and girls is being used as a weapon of war. Available sources show serious levels of gender-based violence, trafficking, armed criminal violence, and sexual exploitation risks connected to organized crime and illegal mining, but these are not clearly documented as wartime rape or conflict-related sexual violence. Therefore, this variable should be coded as little to no war-related potential, while noting that Brazilian women and girls still face serious non-war-related sexual violence and trafficking risks (MR-CODER COMMENT).

"One of the highlighted cases is that of Tamires (a fictitious name), a temporary sergeant in the Army, who reported being harassed on three occasions by Lieutenant Fábio de Andrade Fontes. However, the fear imposed by the rigid military obedience and the macho environment of the barracks prevented her from immediately reporting the harassment. After two years of legal proceedings, the officer was sentenced to one and a half years of detention, a decision that Tamires considered insufficient, since the accused maintained his military career while her contract was interrupted" (para 3).
