Abstract

Since the upheaval against President Bashar al-Assad broke out in 2011, Syria has been in the stage of a conflict whose tolls of victims surpass the thousands. The conflict is not over and numbers of affected people are likely to increase. This papers puts forward a policy discussion and guidelines for the creation of a governance network structure through which international organizations, such as the International Criminal Court, the United Nations, the Syrian government, and other global actors involved in the conflict, should operate while the conflict is still happening. More important, this paper argues that the media — which has a key yet neglected role in TJ processes — must be a part of such a network if the actors’ intentions are to bring about restorative justice to victims. The paper also offers a mapping strategy of media outlets to be part of the network.
