Advancing International Human Rights Law Responsibilities of Development NGOs

More about the book

Focusing on the role of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in post-genocide Rwanda, this book examines their responsibilities under international human rights law (IHRL) to support the reparative justice rights of genocide survivors. It argues that NGOs must be held accountable for their actions while providing essential services and partnering with governments. The author emphasizes the need for NGOs to respect social, economic, and cultural rights, highlighting how their lack of accountability can lead to discrimination and marginalization of survivors in the transitional justice context.
