In 2010 the IHJR made considerable progress with its projects, finalizing several shared narratives, including a report on political myths in the Balkans and a pilot project on IDPs in Kenya. 2010 also marked the launching of a new project in Turkey and Armenia and bringing its four projects in the Middle East to near completion.

2009 Annual Report
The IHJR has taken important strides forward in developing the field of historical justice and reconciliation. The IHJR can proudly count as a key accomplishment its own transformation from being a “project” of the Salzburg Global Seminar to an independent institute in The Hague in October 2008. It is now recognized not only in The Netherlands but internationally as a center undertaking issues of historical justice and reconciliation. Our annual report of 2009, which can be downloaded here, reflects the developments of the IHJR during its first full year of independence.
The CHDR is an outcome of the IHJR Project in the Former Yugoslavia.
The IHJR works in partnership with the Salzburg Global Seminar.
