See it. Verify it. End it.
Liberia has endured decades of unchecked impunity for civil war atrocities and systemic corruption due to the complete absence of specialized accountability courts.
ImpunityLens lets Liberians report current corruption and unpunished civil war crimes via mobile. Reports go through a transparent community + AI verification process, then appear on a public heatmap and dashboard. Aggregated intelligence is automatically packaged into advocacy reports sent to the UN, ECOWAS, and donors to accelerate creation of specialized accountability courts.
Liberian civil war survivors, victims’ families, and citizens impacted by government corruption
Combines historical TRC data with live reports in one verifiable chain-of-custody system. Public dashboards create transparency pressure that generic whistleblower platforms cannot match in the Liberian context.
