Justice Rapid Response is the only global facility that provides rapidly deployable experts to investigate international crimes and serious human rights violations and to enable a holistic, gender-sensitive, and inclusive approach to justice.

VISION AND MISSION

At JRR, we share a vision where all victims and survivors of international crimes and serious human rights violations have access to justice, contributing to peaceful and inclusive societies. To get there, the organization has set for itself the following  mission : to partner with international, national and civil society actors by providing them with prompt, impartial and professional expertise, tailored to each context, to investigate international crimes and serious human rights violations and to promote the rights and access to justice of victims and survivors.

THEMATIC FOCUS

Further, JRR has also identified two thematic focus that it wishes to mainstream through all its expert deployments worlwide: accountability for crimes affecting children and for sexual and gender-based violence. The scale of the crimes affecting children in armed conflicts and fragile settings is immense, but too often overlooked. To change this reality, JRR systematically deploys experts to help its partners adopt a child-sensitive approach to their investigations and justice efforts. As per SGBV, all individuals - females, males, gender nonconforming individuals, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and intersex - can be victims of SGBV. At JRR, we aim to systematically mainstream gender justice and bridge the expertise gap in this field.
