Read MoreA message from Emma Bonino
Through its worldwide political campaigns and initiatives "No peace Without Justice" aims to address situations where fundamental and universal principles are often set aside in the name of political stability and presumed cultural incompatibility.
"No peace Without Justice" raises awareness, fosters public debate and spurs political mobilization among activists, parliamentarians and governments to promote human rights, democracy, the rule of law and international criminal justice. With its scarce resources, but with the strength of its resolve.
