Pathways of Innovation: Civil Society Advancing Transitional Justice

Global Initiative for Justice, Truth and Reconciliation

The Global Initiative for Justice, Truth and Reconciliation (GIJTR) – a flagship program of the Coalition – is a Consortium of nine organizations that together serve as a new mechanism to respond in a multi-disciplinary and integrated manner to the transitional justice needs of societies emerging from conflict or periods of authoritarian rule.

Published in January 2020, this manual, Pathways of Innovation: Civil Society Advancing Transitional Justice, shares lessons learned from the different collaborations among members of the Global Initiative for Justice, Truth and Reconciliation (GIJTR) Consortium. Each chapter or section lists the primary individual and institutional authors, including the lead partner of that project, with additional Consortium contributors and editors included in each chapter’s footnotes. Simon Robins, an editorial consultant with transitional justice and evaluation expertise, developed an evaluation framework and methodology for each chapter, guided the lead authors in identifying lessons learned and recommendations, and streamlined the chapters to ensure accessibility and consistency throughout the manual.
