Lawyers Collective

The international campaign Justice for Sankara is mainly based on a collective of lawyers. These attorneys work pro bono, i.e. voluntarily for the public good, for international law and for internationalist and pan-African solidarity. Their immense work is already historic and their contribution to the fight against impunity is well known. The odyssey of almost a quarter of a century has been marked, unfortunately, by the death of some, the departure of others to other functions or causes, or the arrival of new ones. The ICSJ is grateful for the courage and self-sacrifice of its collectives, whose members are raw models for the profession.
