\tVictims’ Rights & Constitutional Transitions
\n <\/h4>\n

<\/h3>\n

We focus on the rights of victims to truth, justice, reparation and reconciliation in the context of armed conflict in Colombia. Our advocacy in Colombia on these issues has\u00a0an international perspective, which we hone by developing case studies on constitutional transitions in other parts of the world and participating in forums for expertise- sharing which bring together international organizations and networks.
\u00a0
We analyze and have an influential expert voice in the Processes of Justice and Peace, the Legal Framework for Peace, the Law of Victims and, currently, the Peace Process in Colombia. We study and contribute to the debate on the mechanisms for the approval of the peace agreement, prosecution, alternative penalties, and the truth commission\u2014always with a distributive justice perspective and with the aim of achieving reparations that are truly transformative.<\/p>\n

\n Human Rights and the Practical Power of Art<\/a>

\n <\/h5>\n

At a time when the human rights movement is facing great challenges, and at a moment when there is a widespread recognition that the human rights movement must be more interdisciplinary, and locally connected, human rights advocates should be more purposeful in integrating art, in addition to social sciences, into our practice.<\/p>\n

\n\t\tAccountability of Corporate Actors During Transitional Justice Processes
\n\t<\/h3>\n

<\/h4>\n

As part of a broader project on the accountability of corporate actors during transitional processes, Dejusticia, along with partner organizations, intervened in the the 2nd Session of Open-Ended Intergovernmental Working Group on Transnational Corporations and Human Rights<\/p>\n

Dejusticia, as an organization with ECOSOC consultative status, presented an oral intervention during the second panel of the session, calling attention to the special conditions of societies living in the context of conflict or undergoing a transition process. These societies have special conditions as they demand accountability from economic actors that have cooperated or assisted in the violation of human rights during armed conflict. Thus, Dejusticia requested that the Working Group consider specific provisions that take into account the needs of these societies to prosecute corporate complicity with conflict actors.<\/p>\n

A transcript of our intervention can be found here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\t\tNormative implementation of the peace agreement
\n\t\t<\/a>
\n\t<\/h3>\n

<\/h4>\n

Dejusticia analyzes and tracks the normative implementation of the peace agreement between the Colombian government and the FARC-EP. Our work includes short documents analyzing the constitutional and legal reforms that develop the agreement; participation in public hearings in Congress; interventions before the Constitutional Court; work in networks of civil society organizations, academics and university research groups; and participation in media debates.<\/p>\n
