📢 Exciting News! 🎉 We are thrilled to announce the successful completion of the project, "Victim-Centered Approach to Transitional Justice," funded and implemented by Global Initiative Justice, Truth and Reconciliation, and esteemed partners: Humanitarian Law Center, International Coalition of Sites of Conscience, Asia Justice and Rights, Centre for the Study of Violence and Reconciliation, and the Global Pro Bono Law Firm.
Since May 2022, "Roots" has played a crucial role as one of the consultants in this transformative initiative. Our primary focus was on providing consultancy in the field of transitional justice, specifically addressing the past in Albania. The project aimed to ensure a comprehensive representation of victims in transitional justice processes.
Throughout the project, we actively participated in all meetings, sharing our expertise and experience. We also had the privilege of interviewing individuals who had personally endured persecution during the communist era in Albania or were relatives of persecuted families. It was a humbling experience to connect with these brave individuals and learn from their stories.
We are immensely proud to have contributed our expertise and experience to this significant undertaking. As a result of our collective efforts, we are delighted to announce that the guidebook is now ready! This guidebook will serve as a valuable resource, providing guidance on implementing a victim-centered approach in transitional justice processes.
We extend our deepest gratitude to the GIJTR, its partners, and all those who supported us throughout this journey. Together, we have taken a significant step towards empowering victims and ensuring their voices are heard. The completion of this project reinforces our commitment to creating a more just and inclusive society.
Stay tuned for more updates as we continue our mission to promote transitional justice and support those affected by historical injustices. Thank you for your unwavering support and trust in our work.
