Discussion Programs on the Occasion of International Week of the Disappeared Held

The participants, including victims and stakeholders, voiced their apprehensions regarding the government's repetitive unfulfilled commitments and the prolonged postponement of the Transitional Justice process. They emphasized the adverse consequences resulting from such delays, particularly in terms of impeding the victims' ability to obtain truth, justice, and reparations.
Also, the participants from different organizations expressed their shared perspective that justice is the rightful entitlement of the victims, and the state must ensure its delivery. They emphasized the need to amend the transitional law in alignment with international legal standards and the rulings of the Supreme Court.
The victims voiced their shared experience, highlighting the distress and concern they experience due to societal and familial pressure to conduct funeral rites for their missing loved ones. In addition, the families are deprived of social security allowances, which further hindered their ability to sustain daily livelihood.
All the programs served as an informative platform for participants residing in rural communities, enabling them to stay updated on the current status of the transitional justice process. Additionally, these events proved beneficial in establishing a channel of communication with the local municipality, aiming to enhance access to reparations for the victims. Moreover, the attendees collectively resolved to exert pressure on both the federal and provincial governments to allocate budgets specifically for the reparation of the victims. Victims' participation at the event was substantial, encompassing a diverse range of individuals.
