*Justice and Reconciliation in East Timor.

The crisis in Dili this year is a reminder that without justice and reconciliation, the past will continue to haunt the people of a new post-conflict nation such as Timor Leste (East Timor). Chega (“Enough), the final report of the Reception, Truth and Reconciliation Commission (CAVR), contains the most authoritative account so far of the recent sufferings of the East Timorese people, as well as recommendations for a more just and stable future. Following its dissemination throughout Timor-Leste in recent months, Chega! Is being launched in Australia (Sydney Melbourne, Ballarat and Canberra)
