Professor Kofi Nsia-Pepra presented a paper entitled: Truth and Justice- Establishing Accountability for War Crimes and Crimes against Humanity in Africa. at the Midwest Political Science Association Annual Meeting, Chicago April 13, 2012 . The paper critically examines the appropriateness of either truth commissions or war crime tribunals for accountability for war crimes in Africa. It demonstrates the inefficacy of either mechanism to adequately account for war crimes and proposes a hybrid model of truth and justice that caters for deficiencies of the other thereby enhancing efficacious accountability.
