Since 2019, the Government’s approach to preventing mass atrocities has become clearer.
Conclusion
Since 2019, the Government’s approach to preventing mass atrocities has become clearer. In particular, welcome changes were implemented in the course of this inquiry. The Government has launched the Office for Conflict, Stabilisation and Mediation (OCSM), which will contain a new hub to consider atrocity prevention. This hub will pilot interventions to prevent atrocities in ‘priority countries’ and build a new warning system for atrocities and conflict.
Government response summary AI-generated
The government agrees with the importance of a comprehensive whole-of- government approach to mass atrocity prevention but cannot commit to developing a written strategy at this time. They state the Mass Atrocity Prevention Hub is directing resource towards implementation across a range of workstreams, and they will continue to bolster monitoring capabilities and work with partners.
