The session will include a discussion on the future course(s) of action that will need to be taken based on the findings of the Tribunal.
The People’s Tribunal will investigate the allegations that the Government of Sri Lanka and its armed forces committed war crimes and crimes against humanity during and after the final phase of its war with the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam.
The Tribunal will also examine the local and international factors that led to the collapse of the 2002 Ceasefire Agreement.
