What does Ensaaf do and how does it achieve change?
Ensaaf’s staff is highly trained in law, advocacy, and investigating, documenting, and researching human rights violations. Ensaaf employs three integrated strategies: • Documenting abuses to counter official denials and build evidence for accountability; • Engaging in strategic litigation to remove perpetrators from power and set national precedents on human rights norms; and • Organizing survivors to advocate for their rights to truth, justice, and reparations. We implement these strategies through our four core programs—Community Organizing & Education, Documentation, Legal Advocacy, and United Nations Advocacy.
