Abstract:
The ICRC partnered with the Committee on Missing Persons in Cyprus (CMP) to organize the workshop "Mechanisms for missing persons: clarifying the fate and supporting families". The CMP was established in 1981 by agreement between the Greek Cypriot and Turkish Cypriot communities under the auspices of the United Nations. It carries out the mandate to locate, identify and return to their families the remains of Greek and Turkish Cypriots who went missing between 1963 and 1974. This was the fourth of five expert workshops taking place in 2019 as part of the ICRC's Missing Persons Project, launched in 2018. This report summarizes the discussions and conclusions of the workshop. It constitutes the first step in the agreed process, which will be implemented in close consultation with the wider community of practice.
