Justice Rapid Response welcomes the first report of the Special Follow-Up Mechanism on the recommendations made by the Interdisciplinary Group of Independent Experts (MESEG) Bolivia, which was jointly set up by the Plurinational State of Bolivia and the Comisión Interamericana de Derechos Humanos in the aftermath of the Bolivian post-electoral violence in 2019.
JRR contributed to the work of the MESEG by deploying a Spanish-speaking Senior Reparations Expert and a Senior Psychosocial and Gender Expert to help assess the reparation needs of the victims and to help build an Integral Reparations Plan for these victims.
We will ensure that the correct expertise is made available in a timely manner to continue supporting initiatives such as the MESEG to keep promoting the rights and access to justice of victims and survivors of gross human rights violations and international core crimes.
