Building on the framework established by the African Union Transitional Justice Policy (AUTJP), the report analyses civil society engagement with the indicative elements of transitional justice: peace processes, transitional justice commissions, African traditional justice mechanisms, reconciliation and social cohesion, reparations, redistributive (socio-economic) justice, memorialisation, diversity management, justice and accountability, political and institutional reforms, and human and peoples' rights. The eleventh indicative element—human and peoples' rights—is not addressed as a standalone section, as its discourse is reflected throughout the document given that human rights considerations permeate all aspects of transitional justice.
