Our process

The Global Survivors Fund (GSF) advocates for duty bearers as well as the international community to develop reparations programmes, and guides states and civil society by providing expertise and technical support for designing reparations programmes.

What we do

For survivors and with survivors

We value and depend on survivors to co-create all aspects of our work, particularly the modalities and types of remedies they want to receive.
