JRR Completes its 800th Expert Deployment

Justice Rapid Response is very pleased to announce that it recently completed it’s 800th expert deployment!

In partnership with the Special Jurisdiction for Peace (JEP), JRR deployed a Psychosocial Support Expert to support the JEP’s macro-case 09 – which investigates the crimes committed against indigenous people, their territories, and certain ethnic groups – to pilot the implementation of a psychosocial support methodology for victims of sexual and gender-based violence, and strengthen the participation of victims in relation to the reparations process. 

More specifically, the JEP wished to ensure that victims of SGBV fully participate in the development and the implementation of the methodology, particularly women community leaders who are key agents in restoring their community fabric and play an essential role in terms of primary recipients of victims’ demands in terms of reparations.

In Colombia and across the globe, JRR will continue promoting justice processes that are respectful of victims’ and survivors’ needs.
