Reparations Legal Database
Legal Instruments
In this section we have included both legally binding instruments and others which although not binding are forceful expressions of the government’s intentions at various stages. These different types of instruments reflect the instability of central government in Somali over the last decades.:
Reports
This selection of reports reflects the dual focus of our project on Somalia: the documentation of crimes of sexual exploitation and abuse and the existing and developing legal structures that may be harnassed to address these crimes.
Articles
Our selection of articles focuses on very recent assesments of the legal context for prosecuting perpetrators and/or providing remedies for victims.
Reparations Cases
Caselaw on sexual and gender-based violence in Somalia is not readily accessible at the moment. We will be updating this page at regular intervals.
