Countries
Over the lifetime of the project (2017-2022) we explored how reparations are used in countries transitioning from conflict to address the consequences of the past. We examined a range of themes and conduct field research in Colombia, Guatemala, Nepal, Northern Ireland, Peru and Uganda. Our findings can be found in each of our country and thematic reports on our project outputs page.
