International Development Committee Actual start House of Commons
21:01 - 21:44
Speaker 2
I'm starting this session on the UK's response to atrocity and conflict prevention and particularly looking at the role of the Integrated Security Fund. We're extremely privileged to have three witnesses in front of us that the committee has worked with over many years and we really, really value the work that you do at great personal cost, I have to say, and we hear you and we try and amplify you whenever we can because we do really appreciate what you do. If I could start by asking you to introduce yourselves and a little bit around the work that you do in this field.
Matthew, could I start with you, please?
21:44 - 22:19
Speaker 3
Sure, thank you so much. I'm Matthew Smith and CEO and founder at Fortify Rights. We are an international human rights organization. We essentially do three things in the area of atrocity crimes. We're investigating atrocities, we're engaging governments and institutions and others on solutions.
And thirdly, we do what we refer to as strengthening work. So we're working to strengthen community-based responses to mass atrocity crimes. And uniquely, our team comes from places where we work.
