Description of the Side Event:Situated within global efforts marking 25 years since the Durban Declaration and Programme of Action, this side event will examine California’s Reparations Task Force as a contemporary case study in the design and implementation of reparatory justice frameworks for people of African descent. The discussion will address institutional architecture, eligibility criteria, constitutional and legal viability, and intergenerational impacts, including for youth as rights-holders and agents of change. Drawing on both achievements and limitations, the session will generate implementation-oriented recommendations and identify replicable practices to inform States, international mechanisms, and the ongoing work of the Permanent Forum.
