I really like this piece by @RubyTurok on the language used in the #Ongwen trial. It's a novel and insightful perspective on the framing devices in international criminal trials. #ICC jicl.ir/article_144820_e65d9…

Police and immigration officials often interview individuals from different cultures about potentially traumatising events. In this article, @AminaMemon1, Zoe Given-Wilson and I discuss how trauma, culture and memory may interact. A thread. (1/10) www-tandfonline-com.vu-nl.id…

What a joy to have an entire panel on culture in the courtroom & from such various angles. Was honored to present alongside @juliebirdfraser & judge Victoria McCloud. And indeed to have in the same room (again) 4 authors from the edited volume @SuzanneSchot & @HolaBarbora
Did some shameless self promotion yesterday w these fabulous women of international criminal law at the peace palace. What a joy! @NistorNis @SuzanneSchot @HolaBarbora @PeacePalace #internationallaw #criminallaw #culture

This may be well-intentioned but every $ pledged ONLY for #Ukraine investigations is one invested in the perception that all victims are NOT the same. Stop it. The Russians will use it to raise qs on independence. Fund the #ICC properly and don't earmark $ per situation.
Instead of providing the #ICC with a sustainable amount of yearly funding for its budget, states again have dedicated millions of $ earmarked for 🇺🇦. There'll be much backslapping. But this is the kind of money that only helps undermine ICC impartiality. apnews.com/article/ukraine-u…

Nadia Volkova (Director, Ukrainian Legal Advisory Group, Kyiv) underlines that while help from abroad sent to Ukraine to investigate crimes is appreciated, these practitioners come with ‘a blueprint’ in mind. And they need to understand the specificity of the situation #IBACrime

In general, it is poor ethical practice to send any inexperienced researchers to do this kind of work without training, oversight, and ethics review.
University dissertation supervisors, please stop sending UG students out to interview asylum seekers in Ireland with minimal training and oversight. There are no guaranteed benefits to asylum seekers of this research and a high risk of poor research practice. Do something else.

(4) In her dissenting opinion, judge Ibáñez Carranza said that # Ongwen’s condition as a victim did not cease when he turned 18 years old. The TC should have considered the violent indoctrination of a defenseless child and how it affected his brain and moral development.
