For more than 100 days already, the whole world has been witnessing war crimes and crimes against humanity committed by russia in Ukraine. The business of our country also suffers significant losses – production sites are being damaged, stocks are being stolen, infrastructure is being destroyed, and hundreds of millions of expected revenues are lost. One of the key steps for ensuring damages compensation in the future is documenting evidence now.
The eyeWitness to Atrocities application, developed at the initiative of the International Bar Association, has been successfully used for several years to document war crimes around the world.
Our speakers told about:
- The importance of properly documenting evidence of damages inflicted as a result of crimes to secure compensation in the future
- Features and benefits of the eyeWitness to Atrocities app
- Possibility to use photos and videos recorded through the eyeWitness to Atrocities app in courts at the national and international levels
- Practicalities of using the app based on Ukrainian cases
