Why Documentation Matters

Documentation preserves the truth of what happened—who was affected, how harm occurred, and what patterns exist. Without credible records, violations are easier to deny, repeat, or erase.

Every incident documented is a step toward accountability. Every voice recorded is evidence that cannot be silenced. Our documentation creates a foundation for justice that persists beyond the moment of violation.

How Evidence Supports Justice

Reliable evidence can support legal action, advocacy, protection efforts, reparations, and policy change. It also strengthens institutional memory so communities and organizations can track progress, setbacks, and commitments over time.

Pathways to Impact

  • Legal Accountability: Documentation supports prosecutions, civil cases, and international justice mechanisms
  • Policy Change: Evidence-based research informs legislative reforms and policy responses
  • Protection: Early warning and pattern analysis help prevent future violations
  • Reparations: Records support victim recognition and reparation claims
  • Historical Record: Documentation preserves memory and prevents denial

Stories of Change

Community Documentation Network

In partnership with local leaders, we trained community members in safe documentation practices. This network has since documented over 200 incidents and supported protection responses for vulnerable families.

Evidence for Advocacy

Our quarterly monitoring reports provided crucial evidence for advocacy campaigns that resulted in policy discussions at the regional level, bringing attention to previously overlooked violations.
