Posted by alejandro on 09 06 2010 | Comments
On 2 June 2010, the Registrar of the International Criminal Court, Madame Silvana Arbia, participated in a panel discussion on the impact of the work of the Court on victims and affected communities. Discussions focused on participation of victims, protection of victims and witnesses, the role of outreach and the Trust Fund for Victims.
The event was organised by the Assembly of States Parties to the Rome Statute as part of its stocktaking exercise during the Review Conference of the Rome Statute.
The Review Conference taking place in Kampala (Uganda) from 31 May to 11 June 2010, is a significant milestone for the International Criminal Court. It will be the first opportunity for the States Parties to the Rome Statute to make amendments to the Statute since its entry into force on 1 July 2002. Additionally the Review Conference will be an occasion for a “stocktaking” of international justice.
The event is open to the States Parties to the Rome Statute, observer States, and States not having observer status as well as intergovernmental organizations and other entities. Additionally, numerous representatives of the civil society, including non-governmental organizations and representatives of victim’s organizations will attend the Conference.
