As Haiti Rebuilds and Aristide Returns

Join human rights lawyers Mario Joseph and Brian Concannon on, for a discussion on their roles and legal strategies in prosecuting the case against the late Haitian dictator Jean-Claude “Baby Doc” Duvalier. Come hear about the most recent news from Haiti from Haiti’s top human rights lawyers and add to the discussion of advancing human rights.  Joseph, Haiti’s most prominent human rights lawyer and managing attorney of the Bureau des Avocats Internationaux (BAI), is representing Duvalier’s victims. Concannon, who spent nine years in Haiti with the UN and the BAI, and now directs the Institute for Justice & Democracy in Haiti (IJDH), is coordinating a team of international lawyers and law student providing support to the case. Their work on Duvalier has been featured on CNN, NPR, the BBC and the Washington Post.
