   The Coalition for the International Criminal Court, a network of civil society organizations in 150 countries, is pleased to announce the launch of its blog In Situ: See Justice through the Eyes of Civil Society. We invite you to join this vibrant discussion at www.iccnow.org/blog or HYPERLINK "http://www.togetherforjustice.org/blog" www.togetherforjustice.org/blog In Situ is Latin for “in the natural place.” As the name of our blog, this term refers to the idea of bringing international justice and trial proceedings home to affected communities. The Coalition’s blog endeavors to help bridge the gap between populations affected by the crimes under the Court’s investigation and the ICC’s daily activities at its headquarters in The Hague. In Situ will feature posts by some of our more than 2,500 members in 150 countries around the world. In our opening blog discussion on the Court’s first trial in the case of The Prosecutor vs. Thomas Lubanga Dyilo, we will share the perceptions, hopes and fears of national populations about the Court’s work to eradicate impunity for grave crimes. We hope to facilitate a direct dialogue between our members on the ground, international justice experts and interested members of the broader public. We invite you to feature our In Situ blog on your website and encourage you to post our attached blog icon on your page and link to our blog. If interested, please us know and we will send the blog icon via email. If you have any questions about the blog or require technical assistance with linking back to our site, please do not hesitate to make contact.
