International conference on reparatory justice
- Mauritius
This historic conference directly aligns with the African Union's 2026-2036 Decade on Reparations. It also responds directly to UN General Assembly resolution A/RES/80/250, which recognised the enslavement of Africans as the gravest crime against humanity.
I attended and spoke with 2 platforms:
- A member of the Heirs of Slavery
- A descendant of Henry Barkly, a former 19th century Governor of Mauritius
