Survivors of gross human rights violations can tell individual stories of suffering and lessons learnt which can feed into the collective memory of a population. According to Transitional Justice, however, core common principles are posited to apply universally when dealing with past gross human rights violations. These include the human-rights based Dealing with the Past framework derived from the Joinet-Orentlicher Principles to fight impunity, including four core principles: (1) the right to know, (2) the right to justice, (3) the right to reparation and (4) guarantees of non-recurrence.
