CLALS Releases Working Paper No. 21
CLALS released a new working paper, "International Anti-Impunity Missions in Guatemala and Honduras: What Lessons for El Salvador?," which provides sound, detailed analysis of lessons that anti-impunity efforts elsewhere in Central America may hold for El Salvador, as part of an Open Society Foundations-sponsored project. The report, authored by Prof. Charles Call, is informed by previous CLALS-sponsored studies, most notably an analysis of the Mission against Impunity and Corruption in Honduras (MACCIH).
The report was launched in San Salvador, El Salvador, at a public event held at the Universidad Centroamericana José Simeón Cañas, on June 20, 2019. The report is available for download in English and Spanish.
Partner & Funder Highlights
Open Society Foundations has granted the Center $60,000 for a project that will analyze and enhance public understanding of the implications of establishing an international commission against corruption and impunity in El Salvador. This project builds on a previous OSF-funded project on monitoring MACCIH and anti-impunity efforts in Honduras. The project will be led by SIS Professor Charles Call and a team of researchers in Central America and at the Center.
