Justice Report is a
specialist reporting agency focusing on war crimes trials taking place before
local courts; development of the local legal system; and efforts to come to
terms with the past.
With its objective, timely
and unbiased reports, BIRN's Justice Report provides a support network for
media, the general public and displaced citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina
throughout the world.
Justice Report offers
BiH, regional and international media, as well as the general public, regular,
comprehensive, objective and reliable information on war crimes processes and
other events, which helps people from Bosnia and Herzegovina to confront the
past.
Justice Report is the
only agency providing comprehensive coverage of the War Crimes Chamber within
the Court of BiH. Beside reports from
War Crimes Chamber processes, we also offer analysis and monitor and report on
changes in the legal system and alternative mechanisms for determining the
truth about past events in BiH. All our
reports are published in two languages at www.bim.ba
and are available for free to all who are interested.
Once per week, Justice
Report issues a magazine containing all the reports that were published during
the week. It is sent by email to registered subscribers. If you would like to receive Justice Report
via email, please register at www.bim.ba or write to
urednik@birn.eu.com. Justice Report is published in the languages of the people
of Bosnia and Herzegovina and English.
Launched two years ago, Justice Report has over 3.000 registered subscribers in the country and abroad,
and around 9.000 individuals are visiting our magazine's web address every month.
Justice Report enjoys
the support of numerous victims' associations in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
"We, sexually abused women and men,
support only you. Because of our voluminous
work in the association we don't have time to monitor the trials, so we thank
you for informing us and we fully support you," Association Women Victims
of War.
Media throughout Bosnia
and Herzegovina rely on Justice Report for daily information on war crimes
trials.
"I can gladly say that the
information we receive from you via electronic mail is very welcome and we
often, almost daily, use them," Radion of Federation of BiH.
International academic
and analytical institutions also use the service.
"Your organisation is an
excellent source of information on justice and reconciliation," Centre for
Justice and Peacebuilding, Eastern Mennonite University Harrisonburg, Virginia
USA
