IPT's Fight for Human Rights: Advocacy Beyond Boundaries

It operates independently of state and formal international bodies like the UN. IPT’s authority is rooted in the moral grounds that law is also a tool of civil society, not just state power.
About
International People's Tribunal
IPT encourages participation and support through various forms, such as donations, volunteering, and spreading awareness about their events and findings.
It’s important to clarify that IPT differs from international courts like the ICTR for Rwanda and ICTY for Yugoslavia, which are established by the UN Security Council or the International Criminal Court. IPT’s authority lies in its moral foundation.
