This podcast was recorded for the launch of Policy Briefing 9 on 'Displacement, transitional justice and reconciliation: assumptions, challenges and lessons ' on 25 June 2012 at the Canadian High Commission, London.

'Displacement, transitional justice and reconciliation: assumptions, challenges and lessons ' explores the links between reconciliation, forced migration and transitional justice, bringing into focus the ways in which displaced persons figure in transitional justice processes, and the potential implications of this involvement for reconciliation. The briefing addresses the interlinked conceptual and practical challenges associated with trying to advance reconciliation in post-conflict societies affected by large-scale displacement, and highlights some of the ways in which policymakers and practitioners have sought to support reconciliation between displaced populations and other actors. It analyses some of the assumptions that have characterised these efforts, and suggests ways in which the challenges surrounding the interface of displacement, transitional justice and reconciliation may be more effectively navigated.
