Since 2020, RFPJ has been implementing the “Fostering victim-centred Transitional Justice (TJ) in Uganda” project. Currently, in its third phase (2023-2025), the project aims at incrementally furthering victims’ realization of Transitional Justice in Uganda through; 1) Strengthening the organizational and technical capacities of at least 2,000 victims of past conflicts in the Rwenzori and Northern regions of Uganda in furthering victim-centered and responsive TJ and; 2) Progressively influencing at least 200 policy makers, leaders, and other actors towards the implementation of the 2019 National TJ policy and enactment of the National TJ Act in a victim centered and responsive manner.

The project deliberately targets and engages with victims of different conflicts in the two regions, the Parliament of the Republic of Uganda, relevant Ministries, and other state and non-state actors involved in the furtherance of TJ at local, regional, and national levels. In these engagements, RFPJ strives to amplify the voices of victims as first-hand advocates for their own rights, needs, and interests and creates platforms for them to dialogue with duty-bearers in shaping the direction of the responses to their peculiar needs and interests.
