FORUM: “Building a more just World.” International Criminal Justice Day 2025. 17 July is the Day of International Criminal Justice. It marks the anniversary of the adoption of the Rome Statute on 17 July 1998, the founding treaty of the ICC, which seeks to protect people from genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes and the crime of aggression. It’s an occasion to unite all those who wish to support justice, promote victims' rights, and help prevent crimes that threaten the peace, security and well-being of the world. This year, we underscore the urgent need for coordinated, principled action to uphold the international justice system and ensure that all survivors of atrocity crimes can access their right to truth, justice, and reparation.
