About
Since the Court's creation in 2002, it has carried forth investigations all around the world issuing warrants against some of the worst perpetrators of crimes against humanity in territories like Darfur, Gaza and Eastern Congo. With 110 member states the Court has grown significantly since its beginnings. However it has had to withstand opposition from several key countries, notably the United States.
Mr. Ocampo will be introduced by Leonardo Vivas, coordinator of the Latin Americna Initiative here at the Carr Center.
The Head Prosecutor will be sharing with us the challenges the Court has faced in its short existence. The floor will then be opened to discussion based on audience questions.
