ENERGIZING REFORM AND EMPOWERING VULNERABLE GROUPS IN IRAQ - WITH OUR PARTNERS CEASEFIRE CENTRE FOR CIVILIAN RIGHTS AND PAX, IILHR OVERSEES A PROJECT THAT CAPITALIZES ON ONGOING INITIATIVES AND THE CURRENT ENVIRONMENT, BUILDS CONSENSUS THROUGH TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE AND OUTREACH TO LOCAL COMMUNITIES DISPROPORTIONATELY AFFECTED BY VIOLENCE, GIVING VULNERABLE GROUPS A SAY IN THE PROCESS AND BROAD-BASED CONSULTATIONS. THIS PROJECT DEEPENS CITIZENSHIP AND POLITICAL PARTICIPATION THROUGH STRONGER LAWS THAT IMPLEMENT IRAQ'S CONSTITUTION AND PROMOTES INCLUSIVENESS AND ACCOUNTABILITY, BUILDS DIALOGUE AND CONSENSUS AROUND LEGISLATIVE AND GRASSROOTS PRIORITIES, AND STRENGTHENS RESEARCH, TECHNICAL AND ADVOCACY SKILLS TO EMPOWER LOCAL AND VULNERABLE GROUPS.
SUPPORTING BETTER EVIDENCE BASED APPROACHES FOR THE IRAQI JUDICIARY - THE INSTITUTE FOR INTERNATIONAL LAW AND HUMAN RIGHTS HAS THREE MAIN OBJECTIVES IN OUR PROGRAM SUPPORTING BETTER EVIDENCE BASED APPROACHES FOR THE IRAQI JUDICIARY:1. BUILD CONSENSUS ON CRITICAL THINKING ABOUT EVIDENCE USED IN ANTI-TERROR AND OTHER TRIALS THAT SHARES INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS AND RESPONDS TO THE NEEDS OF IRAQI INVESTIGATIVE AND TRIAL JUDGES;2. DEVELOP TOOLS THAT COMMUNICATE THESE STANDARDS AND POLICY CHANGES WITH THE FEDERAL JUDICIARY, SUCH AS GUIDELINES TO SPEED TRIALS MORE EFFECTIVELY; AND3. SUPPORT A JUDICIARY THAT BETTER RESPECTS INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS, PROVIDES BETTER PROTECTIONS FOR THE ACCUSED, AND BETTER REVIEW OF EVIDENCE THROUGH TRAINING OF THE COURT OF CASSATION JUDGES AND OTHER SENIOR JURISTS; MAKING THE JUDICIARY MORE EFFICIENT AND ACCELERATING TRIALS.AN UNDER-RESOURCED IRAQI JUDICIARY HAS LABORED FOR YEARS UNDER THE WEIGHT OF PROSECUTING THOUSANDS OF CASES IN THE AFTERMATH OF THE DAESH WAR. MANY OF THESE CASES RELY ON CONFESSIONS, USE ANONYMOUS WITNESS ACCOUNTS AS EVIDENCE, AND ARE PROSECUTED DRAWING ON A BROAD "ANTI-TERROR" LEGAL FRAMEWORK THAT UNDERMINES CONFIDENCE IN THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE PROCESS. BY ADDRESSING THESE CONDITIONS, PROMOTING BETTER EVALUATION OF EVIDENCE IN THE COURT OF CASSATION, AND BETTER INCORPORATING INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS, THE FEDERAL JUDICIARY CAN BUILD A JUDICIARY THAT BETTER RESPECTS INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS, PROVIDE BETTER PROTECTIONS FOR THE ACCUSED, AND SERVE AS AN EXAMPLE FOR THE NATION.
