The Syria Justice and Accountability Centre (SJAC) works within international affairs to document human rights violations in Syria, supporting transitional justice and peace-building efforts. It aggregates information from multiple sources, securely stores it in a centralized database, and categorizes it according to established human rights standards to enable rigorous legal analysis. The organization also assists on-the-ground documenters inside Syria by providing resources and technical guidance, and it collaborates with other actors pursuing justice, human rights, and the rule of law. Based in Washington, District of Columbia, SJAC operates as a small to mid-sized nonprofit focused on preventing impunity and promoting redress. Its work targets policymakers, researchers, and civil society groups engaged in Syria-related accountability, offering an evidence base and analytical capabilities to inform reform and accountability initiatives.
