Humanitarian Law Center Annual Report 2006

The Humanitarian Law Center (HLC) is actively helping countries formed on the territory of the former Yugoslavia establish the rule of law and accept the legacy of their past marked by mass human rights abuses committed during armed conflicts on their territories, in order to prevent the recurrence of such crimes, establish the criminal responsibility of perpetrators, and serve justice.

In order to do this, in 2006 not only did HLC continue implementing transitional justice projects initiated several years ago, but it also started new projects such as reparations for victims of human rights abuses committed during armed conflicts on the territory of the former Yugoslavia. All projects support the programmatic structure of the organisation, which comprises three pillars: Documentation and Memory, Justice and Institutional Reform, and Public Information and Outreach.
