Jan Ruff O'Herne

Jeanne Alida "Jan" Ruff O'Herne AO (18 January 1923 – 19 August 2019)[1] was a Dutch-born Australian human rights and comfort women activist. She was known for her campaigns and speeches against war rape.

During World War II, O'Herne was among young women forced into sexual slavery by the Imperial Japanese Army. Fifty years after the end of the war, O'Herne decided to speak out publicly to demand a formal apology from the Japanese government. She was born in Bandoeng, Dutch East Indies.

O'Herne died on 19 August 2019 in Adelaide, South Australia at the age of 96.[2]
