Workshops & Conferences

By building strategic partnerships, we hope to learn more from the important experiences of fellow human rights defenders. Partnerships are built through formal and informal meetings, workshops, and mentorship programmes across and beyond the African continent.

The National Dialogue on Forgiveness, Accountability and Healing

A four-part series of discussions and dialogue, designed to engage victims, their families and the general public in the vital process of preparing for post-TRRC in Gambia. Part 1 was aired in September 2020, part 2 and part 3 both aired in December 2020 and part 4 aired in March 2021.

Forensic Investigations Workshop

A workshop designed to bridge the gap between families and investigators in the process of the search for the remains of the missing/forcibly disappeared and help victims gain coping skills before, during and after exhumations.

Achieving Accountability in Africa Conference

In collaboration with the Institute for Human Rights and Peace, Cheikh Anta Diop University and the University of the Gambia Student Union, this semi-virtual event brought together young people from both universities as panellists along with human rights advocates from both countries to discuss how accountability for human rights violations can be achieved in Africa and the role that Senegal could play in the post-TRRC transition of The Gambia.
