About Truth and Reconciliation Commission

The Commission Dialogue, vérité et reconciliation was sworn in by President of Ivory Coast Alassane Ouattara on September 28, 2012 in response to the post-election violence of the 2010-2011 Ivorian Crisis. The 11-member Commission, led by former Prime Minister Charles Konan Banny, consisted of religious leaders, regional representatives and Ivorian Chelsea soccer player Didier Drogba. The Commission was modelled on the South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission and given two years to complete its mandate to investigate past human rights violations and provide recommendations on how to prevent future abuses and provide reparations to victims. In addition to gathering private statements from victims, the CDVR organized public hearings, during which victims confronted perpetrators in front of CDVR commissioners. However, the lack of television broadcasts from the commission and minimal media coverage meant that powerful witness statements had little impact across the country. Since the completion of the report and final recommendations, Ouattara has not published the final report, in spite of several calls to that effect. The CDVR led to the creation of the Commission Nationale pour la Réconciliation et l’Indemnisation des Victims (CONARIV) on March 25, 2015 with a compensation fund of 15 million Euros.
