The policy brief entitled “Victims’ and Survivors’ Rights in a Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of Crimes against Humanity”, publishes by REDRESS, the International Federation for Human Rights (FIDH), Global Survivors Fund (GSF) and TRIAL International, voices support for a prospective Convention on Crimes against Humanity and makes recommendations to States on reflecting progressive provisions on victims’ and survivors’ rights.

Among others, the policy brief recommends that, in a prospective Convention on Crimes against Humanity, states should acknowledge the important role victims and survivors play in the fight against those crimes and should adopt the most progressive standards of victims’ and survivors’ rights.
