SRI LANKA CAMPAIGN FOR PEACE AND JUSTICE LTD Information

The Sri Lanka Campaign for Peace and Justice is a global non-partisan movement that aims to: 1. Achieve genuine accountability for systemic human rights violations in Sri Lanka 2. Support efforts within Sri Lankan civil society to promote transitional justice and prevent the recurrence of mass atrocity crimes Founded in 2009, the Sri Lanka Campaign was established to push for accountability for mass atrocity crimes committed in the final stages of Sri Lanka’s civil war, as well as the many other human rights violations that have occurred in Sri Lanka. SLC’s work rests on our analysis that impunity for human rights abuses is the root cause of multiple cycles of violence in Sri Lanka. We believe that to prevent future violence and achieve lasting peace and reconciliation, individuals must be held accountable for the crimes they have committed. We are not affiliated with any political or ethnic group inside or outside of Sri Lanka. We exist to fight for the rights of every person living in Sri Lanka, as well as all of those now living beyond its borders due to war, violence, and persecution.
