We start from a very simple idea: violence is not sustained only by those who carry it out directly. There are also economic, financial, technological, institutional and political structures that make it possible or help to keep it going. Hadaf was founded to investigate those structures, identify who is responsible and turn impunity into **legal action and accountability**.
