This event is organised by the Equality Coalition and Transitional Justice Institute, supported by the LSE Gender Justice and Security Hub.

The Transitional Justice Institute (TJI) is a world-leading law-led multidisciplinary research centre focusing on transitional justice - how societies deal with the transition from conflict or oppression - human rights, gender, international law, peace and conflict.

The Equality Coalition is a network of over 100 NGOs and trade unions dedicated to advancing equality in Northern Ireland. The Coalition is co-convened by UNISON and CAJ (both of which would take no position on the present or future constitutional status of NI).

The Gender, Justice and Security Hub is a multi-partner research network working with local and global civil society, practitioners, governments and international organisations to advance gender justice and inclusive peace. https://thegenderhub.com/

The Committee on the Administration of Justice (CAJ) is an independent, non-governmental human rights organisation, based in Belfast, that promotes justice and protects rights. In addition to co-convening the Equality Coalition CAJ is a NGO partner in the Gender, Justice and Security Hub.
