REPORT: Evaluation of ADHOC’s ECCC / ICC Justice Project 2006 – 2010

The ECCC / ICC Justice project, built on ADHOC’s and its partners’ strengths, has fulfilled and surpassed its goals. It has promoted justice for the victims of the Khmer Rouge regime by (1) dramatically influencing the shape and course of the Khmer Rouge Trials and (2) animating a sustained, nation-wide debate on Khmer Rouge crimes. Complementary project activities around the ICC were somewhat clouded by the urgency and prominence of ECCC related work; nevertheless they constituted a key input to integrating the Rome Statute into Cambodian law.
