Justice for Victims: Lessons from Around the World
On today's episode of Justice Matters, co-host Kathryn Sikkink talks with Phuong Pham and Geoff Dancy about the Carr Center’s Transitional Justice Program, the culmination of the program’s research, and the creation of a research repository on the newly released Transitional Justice Evaluation Tools (TJET) website that compiles data on human rights prosecutions, truth commissions, and more around the world.
Phoung Pham is an Associate Professor in the Department of Global Health and Population at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health and a leading expert in the collection and evaluation of victim centered surveys in post-conflict societies. Geoff Dancy is an Associate Professor of Political Science at the University of Toronto who specializes in transitional justice and human rights accountability. Together they discuss the research of the Transitional Justice Program, along with numerous topics focused on evidence-based, victim-centered transitional justice and its implications for peace, democracy, and human rights around the world.
Visit the Transitional Justice Evaluation Tools website for comparative data on human rights prosecutions, amnesties, truth commissions, reparations, and vetting policies around the world from 1970 to 2020.
