Countering Abuses by Private Military Contractors

closed

Through this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO), GCJ seeks applications to support accountability processes for alleged atrocity crimes committed globally by members of the Wagner Group and analogous Kremlin-backed paramilitaries, including tracking enablers of these entities, which include corporate actors and financial services firms. Accountability processes can include investigations being pursued by national authorities, including by Ukraine’s Office of the Prosecutor General (OPG), or other domestic authorities, including where national systems may exercise extraterritorial jurisdiction; cases before international and hybrid courts; efforts to achieve corporate accountability through corporate governance, civil, or administrative proceedings; and proceedings before human rights mechanisms.
