A victim-centered, research-driven analysis of global justice efforts—and why it matters for fighting impunity in Tunisia.
Tunisia’s justice process continues to face significant challenges: from stalled judicial proceedings and limited transparency, to increasing restrictions on civic space.
Accountability mechanisms remain under pressure, while victims of past human rights violations continue to demand truth, justice, and reparations in an increasingly constrained environment.
This series maintains attention on victims’ rights, accountability obligations, and the functioning of justice mechanisms while contributing to coordinated, evidence-based advocacy by civil society actors.
In this issue, explore selected global developments in practice, including: climate justice as pathways for claiming rights, parallel mechanisms for accountability beyond criminal prosecutions, and the role courts play as both instruments and constraints of power. We analyse why these global shifts matter for the fight against impunity in Tunisia.

This month's issue reveals a global pattern of adaptive authoritarianism. Net trends point to shrinking civic space from China to Burkina Faso, the human cost of armed conflict, eroded trust in institutions, and persistent impunity and stagnation in justice processes despite high-profile judicial steps.
