Workshop with members of the Serious Crimes Response Team

Wayamo hosted its first capacity-building programme for members of the proposed Serious Crimes Response Team (SCRT) on 25 May 2021. The second SCRT training session took place over the span of three days: from 11 to 13 August 2021, participants and local experts gathered at Epe Resort in Lagos, with some international experts joining via Zoom. The goal was two-fold: on the one hand, to further enhance team members’ knowledge of and expertise in relevant topics relating to international criminal law and international humanitarian law; and on the other, to explore the next practical steps to be taken towards ensuring that the SCRT takes shape as projected and eventually becomes fully functional and operational.

Third workshop for the Serious Crimes Response Team

Abuja , Nigeria

The workshop was centred on the ongoing project of creating a Serious Crimes Response Team (SCRT), a highly specialised unit of military investigators and prosecutors drawn from all three services, who will be specifically trained to investigate and prosecute serious crimes that have allegedly been committed by the Armed Forces and potentially fall under the jurisdiction of the ICC.
