About the project
The Library of Accountability and Justice for Ukraine ‘NaSvitlo’ is an online collection of international practice and of the practice of foreign courts concerned with accountability for violations of international law committed in the context of Russia’s war against Ukraine. The platform brings together, in one place, the analysis of decisions and of other materials from those proceedings, and makes them available for systematic search, research and analysis.
The unlawful character of Russia’s actions was recognized as early as 2014: the resolution ‘Territorial integrity of Ukraine’, adopted by the UN General Assembly on 27 March 2014, underscored the illegality of the ‘referendum’ in Crimea and called upon all States, international organizations, and specialized agencies not to recognize any alteration of its status.
NaSvitlo is conceived not merely as an archive of court decisions but as an open resource for researchers, practising lawyers, students, civil society and everyone working on accountability, justice and the rule of law in the context of the war against Ukraine.
