Over the past two decades, CEJIL has supported thousands of victims of serious human rights violations

On our 25th anniversary at CEJIL, we want to stop and reflect on the work we’ve done with hundreds of partners, colleagues, teachers, and people we have represented. This first quarter of a century of existence was marked by huge achievements in the field of human rights, as well as great challenges which, to this day, remain unsolved.

Through this online platform, we will give an overview of our historic work in human rights and the role played by multiple key actors using a series of thematic microsites that will be published over the next few months. We expect that, this project will serve as a space for reflection.

We want to reconstruct this story. Thus far, we’ve managed to compile a small part of it through a nearly impossible exercise of synthesis of our work over the years, but we invite you to contribute your piece by sending us your writing, video messages, anecdotes and pictures.

To stay connected and receive updates on this story, follow us on facebook or twitter.

Please, support our work and help make human rights a reality for all across the Americas.
