The Resolution acknowledges that Cypriot women’s experiences of violence during 1974 are often being excluded from official recognition and thus calls to document testimonies and provide support for survivors. Its transformative potential will ultimately depend on whether this historical awareness becomes incorporated into Cyprus’s public memory of the conflict.
