The WAVE Network analyzes the sexual violence and rape culture landscape in current-day France from the perspective of the Mazan Trial, which contemplated the story of French woman Gisèle Pelicot, a survivor of ten years of sexual violence perpetrated by her own husband. The case ultimately went on to become a landmark case and symbol of protests against widespread sexual violence against women and children in France.
