Central African Republic
In Focus
In the Central African Republic, the ICC focuses on access to justice through access to information, on meeting affected communities, on peace and reconciliation. The work of the Court is made public especially through screenings, urban intervention campaigns, and pop-up installations.
Several activities are conducted in relation to progress in the trials of the ‘Yekatom & Ngaïssona’ and ‘Said’ cases, including information, when needed, on the ‘Bemba’ and ‘Mokom’ cases.
The Court features live broadcasts of judicial key instances on TV Centrafrique, a radio station providing national coverage, local community radios, and live streamings in areas of interest in terms of victims’ and suspects’ communities.
The Court also conducts its ‘urban intervention campaign’, involving the use of roadside billboards to announce key judicial moments and reinforce justice-related principles, and the series of pop-up installations in key symbolic locations in Bangui showing proceedings-related videos followed by a Q&As sessions.
Missions and activities are conducted in Bria, the birthplace and place of arrest of Mr Said, Mbaïki, Mr Yekatom’s area of influence, Bossangoa, the birthplace of Mr Yekatom, as well as in all other locations where charges have been confirmed for both cases, and where it is believed there are victims, including refugee and returnee camps in Chad.
The Court integrates culture, art and sport into its public information programme, as channels to convey messages in a format which provides a space for broader engagement of different sectors of society, including the youth.
