Synergy Association For Victims
Synergy Association for Victims is a non-governmental, non-profit association, aimed at seeking justice for the victims of conflict in Syria, through empowering them to represent themselves, claim their rights, actively participate in accountability efforts, and achieve justice.
Synergy was founded on March 11, 2021, by a group of Syrian victims, and it adopts the community-based approach to organize the victims and survivors, enhance their capabilities, and engage them in shaping plans and policies, as well as implementing activities in order to reveal the truth, accountably, and accomplish justice.
Synergy is part of the Truth and Justice Charter and is a member of the Human Rights Reference Group (HRRG) of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (UNHCHR). The Association is also a member of the International Network of Victims and Survivors of Serious Human Rights Abuses (INOVAS).
We work for all victims of violations accompanying the conflict in Syria, such as killing, arbitrary detention, enforced disappearance, torture, and various forms of cruel, inhuman, or degrading treatment or punishment, as well as forced displacement. We also address violations of Housing, Land, and Property (HLP) Rights, infringements on the freedom of opinion and expression, demographic change, and other human rights violations.
Our Vision:
Justice prevails in Syria, and its residents enjoy safety.
Our Mission:
Documenting all human rights violations in north and northeastern Syria, preserving evidence, documents, and testimonies as a contribution to truth-finding, accountability and achieving justice. Additionally, enhancing the capacities of the victims and advocate for their cause in order to build a society claiming its own rights.
