After almost 10 years, South Sudan is preparing to establish the Hybrid Court to try those who have committed war crimes and crimes against humanity since the civil war began in 2013.

The Transitional National Legislative Assembly recently passed two important bills to create a Hybrid Court, a major milestone in the country’s long search for transitional justice.
