The Department of State’s Office of Global Criminal Justice (J/GCJ) is offering this grant to bolster justice and accountability globally, working to prevent atrocities, mitigate their effects, and end impunity for serious international crimes. This grant is for strengthening mechanisms to investigate and prosecute those responsible for grave offenses, including killings, arbitrary detentions, torture, and missing persons, ensuring such cases meet international legal standards. The program specifically targets South Sudan and Ukraine, leveraging economies of scale for two distinct yet related initiatives. Its purpose is to build crucial capacity in international human rights, criminal, and humanitarian law (IHL) and to provide specialized training in the investigation and prosecution of serious international crimes within these nations. This initiative aims to enhance respect for human dignity and foster stability worldwide.
