Conclusion of Mock_Trails Sessions as means to promote Justice and Accountability Mechanisms in Yemen.
The Center for Strategic Studies to Support Women and Children cswc , a member of the Justice4Yemen pact coalition held the final mock court session today, Saturday, July 27, 2024, in Taiz Governorate.
This session comes as part of the Center's efforts to promote justice and accountability mechanisms, aiming to combat impunity and ensure accountability for violators of women's rights during the armed conflict, as well as to raise awareness about the importance of international humanitarian law and human rights, and encourage victims to resort to national mechanisms to file report violations and preserve evidence. Additionally, it highlights the need for Yemen to join international criminal mechanisms to showcase the suffering of victims and their families and demand their right to justice and reparation.
The Center's cswc administration stated that the mock court activities are a simulation of what is happening in real life, where the session highlighted the importance of accountability and holding those responsible for the violations accountable to ensure justice and fairness for the victims without discrimination. Accountability is necessary to protect rights and promote community stability and security, and absence of accountability can undermine society and threaten the rule of law. Therefore, we call for strengthening the sanctity of the law as the ultimate guardian of human dignity and to achieve justice and prevent the recurrence of such violations.
