How can we advance reparatory justice for Africans and people of African descent?
Addressing the enduring legacies of enslavement, the trade in enslaved Africans and colonialism is essential to dismantling systemic racism today. As calls for reparatory justice grow, dialogue can help translate commitments into concrete action.
Join UN Human Rights for the High-level Dialogue on reparatory justice for Africans and people of African descent, bringing together States, experts and civil society to explore human rights-based approaches, share examples of reparatory measures and identify practical ways forward.
Featuring a keynote address by
@volker_turk , UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, the event will also highlight UN Human Rights’ explainers on reparatory justice, designed to deepen understanding and support action.
