26 May 2023 marked a historic day for international law with the adoption of the MLA Treaty.
Our Head of Advocacy and Policy, Danae van der Staten Ponthoz, and her co-author Leanna Burnard, explore how the MLA Treaty opens opportunity to recover assets for reparations 👇
Congratulations & thank you to all who have participated in documentation, evidence gathering, & case building. It's such a huge effort to move these cases forward. Every small step is a victory we need to celebrate.

See you there.

🗣#reparation is what survivors most want, but so rarely get….what appears clearly from our research in over 20 countries, is that access to #education is what survivors really want for their children

We feel very privileged to have Lord @tariqahmadbt begin our session on the need for #ReparationsNow.
🗣For some justice can only be delivered through courts…or the real acknowledgement that comes with compensation…
It's nearly here! GSF will present its latest report 📑"The Time for #Reparations is NOW!" at the #PSVI conference on 📆November 28.
Alongside our survivor-activists, we'll show that reparations are not only a right, but also a priority identified by survivors themselves..

As the trial for those responsible of the massacre, & #CRSV of protesters in a stadium in #Guinea in 2009 continues this week, it is important to note what Saran says about this trial's proceedings:🗣️ "anything done for us [survivors], without us, is against us." #SurvivorsSpeak
