The Minujusth and the European Union (EU) delegation in Haiti, with the technical support of the International Center for Transitional Justice (ICTJ), organized a 3-day workshop in Port-au-Prince on the fight against impunity and the introduction to transitional justice (post dictatorship), intended to strengthen key organizations of civil society.

Discussions focused on identifying priorities, opportunities and obstacles to the transitional justice process for past human rights violations.

The majority of the 27 participants (including 13 women) were members of NGOs dedicated to the defense of human rights in Haiti, but also representatives of the Interministerial Committee for Human Rights (CIDP).
