Abstract:
The psychosocial expert research supporting the complaints filed by the Association of Victims of El Mozote in El Salvador and the Victims of the Residents of La Oroya in Peru before the Inter-American Court of Human Rights are the result of participants' relentless fight against impunity. Drawing on this work, the author developed a methodology to visibilize the victims and facilitate audiences who heard their accounts of the events and the harm they suffered. This methodology enables those who accompany survivors to understand their expectations for reparation and facilitates a process through which a common pattern of harm caused by both the El Mozote massacre and the contamination of La Oroya can be observed. This analysis of results from both expert reports demonstrates similarities and differences in the psychosocial harms experienced by the victims and the ensuing proposed reparations.
