Reparations for Wartime Victims in the Former Yugoslavia: In Search of the Way Forward

Reparations for Wartime Victims in the Former Yugoslavia: In Search of the Way Forward

t1_IOM-OIM_svgThe core objective of International Organization for Migration’s Report is to facilitate discussions and political decision making about reparations for victims of international crimes (genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes) committed during the “Yugoslav wars,” as they are defined in and covered by the mandate of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY). This Report is the outcome of a project initiated by a request from the Office of the President of the ICTY to develop a set of concrete recommendations or suggestions on this issue. To provide a starting point for discussions, this Report examines what a comprehensive reparations effort could look like and how it could be achieved given the current context.
