The Documentation
Center of Cambodia aims to assist at least 10,000 victims of
Democratic Kampuchea in filing victim participation requests (either
criminal complaints or civil party applications) with the
Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia during 2008. We
view this activity as helping ordinary Cambodians to participate in
the process of bringing the leaders of Democratic Kampuchea to a
formal legal accounting, and equally important, as reactivating the
informal "truth commission" that was begun during the
early 1980s with the signing of the Renakse petitions (see Renakse
petitions report by Amy
Gordon for more information)
