Comments
The Vietnam Legacies Project uses a transitional justice framework to examine the enduring legacies of America's war in Southeast Asia. This report was completed in collaboration with the Stimson Center, a nonprofit Washington, D.C., think tank. The report is informed by the perspectives of veterans, refugees, and other impacted persons. Key findings were first shared at a scholar-practitioner symposium hosted virtually by the Human Rights Center in October 2020.
