Nerma Jelacic on “The Contribution of Justice Paths to Provisioning Justice to Victims and Establishing a Safe Environment”

On 17 November 2022, Nerma Jelacic spoke at Roadmap to a Safe Environment in Syria, convened by the Syrian Association for Citizens Dignity, the Free Syrian Lawyers Association and the European Institute of Peace, in Geneva. As part of the panel “The Contribution of Justice Paths to Providing Justice to Victims and Establishing a Safe Environment” Nerma considered some of the challenges and constraints in achieving criminal justice for Syrian victims, despite the Syrian conflict being one of the best documented conflicts in recent history. She also reflected on the importance of remaining persistent, where the overwhelming evidence of Regime criminality may continue to serve Syrian victims in their search for justice and accountability into the future.
