Victims know best: Implementing Reparations in Cรดte d’Ivoire

15 August 2016

A brief by the International Center for Transitional Justice (ICTJ)ย  makes recommendations on reparations in Cรดte d'Ivoire.

The ICTJ conducted a consultation that involved the active participation of victims, the National Commission for Reconciliation and Compensation for Victims (La Commission Nationale pour la Rรฉconciliation et lโ€™Indemnisation des Victimes des crises survenues en Cรดte dโ€™Ivoire, CONARIV). Based on them, it made a series of recommendations on reparations and provided an initial list of victims to the government.

The International Center for Transitional Justice (ICTJ) has been working with CONARIV, victimsโ€™ groups, and other government entities on reparations since 2012, providing technical assistance, encouraging a process of consultation and dialogue, and learning from victims about their needs and demands.

ICTJ’s new brief presents a series ofย proposals for the government and the general public to help advance the process of defining a credible reparations policy for Cรดte dโ€™Ivoire andย advance discussions on the best strategy to address the rights of victims of serious human rights and international humanitarian law violations committed by the warring parties.
