August 13, 2005

The Office of the Special Representative of the Executive Secretary of ECOWAS in Liberia has announced on 10 August 2005 the call for nominations for the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) beginning August 11, 2005. The Selection Panel has invited nominations from all sectors of the Liberian Society, including but not limited to civil society, civil society organizations, political parties, professional organizations, private and public institutions, Liberians in the Diaspora, citizens, and the general public. Persons nominated must meet the legal criteria. The process will last three weeks and we will be organising radio programmes, community outreach and publication in newspapers.

As part of this process, please could you distribute this call and also give it to your Civil Affairs counterparts to distribute. The call ends on 3 September and it is very important that we try inform those in inaccessible areas. Nominations should then be brought to you at your offices and you will be responsible for bringing them back to Monrovia at the end of the process. Please carry copies with you during your daily activities and distribute them. In particular, if you have time, please give copies to your County Superintendent.
