Matheson will co-lead a workshop on “NGO Guidelines for Fact-Finding”, hosted by the Open Society Justice Initiative. The workshop will provide guidance and best practices for NGOs and civil society groups documenting and collecting evidence of crimes under the Rome Statute, as well as share recommendations on how to interact with ICC representatives. WITNESS’ Video as Evidence Field Guide will be presented at the event.

The event is free and open to the public. Learn more about the Video as Evidence work on our new website: vae.witness.org.
