Post-Conflict & Transitional Justice

 

No shortage of needs exist in most post-conflict environments; our experience includes legislative reform (including the redrafting of substantive and procedural law), empowering civil society, building capacity among governmental institutions, and promoting citizens' understanding of the rule of law in order to encourage the use of the justice system as a forum to resolve conflict.  The challenge of encouraging and promoting nascent rule of law in post-conflict and transitional states is complicated by challenging security environments, difficulties of access, and the need for good local partners who can access every facet and the legal and educational systems and facilitate introductions.  Building relationships, developing common interests, and authentic cooperation are the only recipe for true success.  Having promoted rule of law in Iraq, Afghanistan, Palestine, and other locations, our core understanding of this is grounded in experience.
