dc.description.abstractIn setting up the Dialogue, Truth and Reconciliation Commission (DTRC), Cote d’Ivoire (CdI) joins 17 other countries in Africa that have instituted truth commissions in an attempt to deal with their fractured pasts. And whereas truth commissions can be important mechanisms through which countries confront their difficult past, their effectiveness is far from assured. This policy brief provides research-based lessons and information on transitional justice in general, and truth commissions in particular as they relate to the CdI context, based on findings of a multi-year, five-country research project carried out by NPI-Africa and the West Africa Network for Peacebuilding (WANEP).en
