The UK is the biggest contributor to the UN Trust Fund, which provides support to the Truth Commission. Through the UN Office for Human Rights in Colombia, we also provide financial support for projects to enable victims to participate in the Peace Agreement’s truth, justice and reparation process, which includes the Truth Commission.
