Funded Activity Summary

Evaluating civil society participation before international criminal tribunals: the amicus curiae and the rights of the defence. Civil society is increasingly seeking to participate directly in proceedings before international criminal tribunals, including as an amicus curiae or friend of the court. This project provides the first comprehensive assessment of: the methods by which civil society actors seek to intervene in international criminal tribunals and the influence of such interventions on legal outcomes; the extent to which such interventions are consistent with the right of the defence to a fair trial; the growing reliance of courts on the amicus brief, and its implications for the defence; and, whether such interventions reflect the range of civil society interests in international criminal justice, or are limited to 'Western' perspectives.
