TRIAL International

Objet publié

This project aims to build accountability for international crimes and grave violations of human rights committed in the context of the armed conflicts in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Burundi. The project works to strengthen the justice systems of these countries by engaging with actors both inside (i.e.: judges, prosecutors and police) and outside (i.e.: lawyers, NGOs and human rights defenders) their legal systems. The goal is to increase their capacity to professionally investigate, document and prosecute conflict-related crimes and serious human rights violations, including sexual and gender-based violence crimes, ultimately contributing to increased accountability, as well as more effective justice systems.
