IPJ Awarded Guatemala Justice Project Grant from
U.S. Department of State
The IPJ, in collaboration with the Barbara Ford Peace Center in Quiché, Guatemala, has been awarded a grant from the United States Department of State’s Bureau for Democracy, Human Rights and Labor to assist indigenous people in exercising their civil and political rights. Quiché is the Guatemalan department most affected by the violence of a 36 year armed conflict that ended in 1996 and continues to suffer the legacies of violence, poverty and exclusion from that conflict.
