This MaGPIE proposal was successful under the European Research Council (ERC) Consolidator Grant 2022.Mass graves exist across the globe and on a shocking scale. They contain evidence that is essential to the realisation of justice and accountability goals at multiple levels: for victims, affected communities, States in transition and the international community. Yet the scale and nature of the problem is not well understood: there are no global records for mass graves, nor is there a universal human rights framework to govern all facets and ramifications of mass graves, thereby resulting in a policy gap.This project urgently responds to this significant knowledge and policy gap in the international human rights landscape. It asks: how can a comprehensive and universally applicable human rights framework for the protection and investigation of mass graves be achieved? To answer this complex question, three overarching objectives have been derived: O1 To produce a global quantitative and qualitative assessment of the scale of the phenomena that are mass graves;O2 To remedy associated blindspots within the existing human rights framework; andO3 To create policies that innovate, consolidate and implement a coherent human rights approach to mass grave engagement.The scale of human loss and the societal significance require a pioneering, multidisciplinary approach that is rooted in law to safeguard sites, human remains as well as the rights and interests of survivors. Led by the author of the international standard-setting Bournemouth Protocol on Mass Grave Protection and Investigation, this project is premised on the belief that mass graves, regardless of where situated, are deserving of a comprehensive human rights framework to secure their protection, investigation and stakeholder engagement. Whilst firmly grounded in legal methodology, it employs multidisciplinary approaches to drive the research excellence needed to generate invaluable, fact-based knowledge, theory development and policy guidance for the benefit of victims, families and communities.

在欧洲研究理事会（ERC）2022年整合者补助金的支持下，这项MapIE提案获得了成功。乱葬坑遍布地球仪，规模令人震惊。这些报告载有对在受害者、受影响社区、转型期国家和国际社会等多个层面实现正义和问责目标至关重要的证据。然而，人们对这一问题的规模和性质还没有很好的了解：没有关于万人坑的全球记录，也没有一个普遍的人权框架来管理万人坑的所有方面和后果，从而造成了政策空白，本项目紧急应对国际人权领域的这一重大知识和政策空白。它提出的问题是：如何才能建立一个全面和普遍适用的保护和调查乱葬坑的人权框架？为回答这一复杂问题，提出了三个总体目标：O 1对乱葬坑现象的规模进行全球定量和定性评估;O2在现有人权框架内补救相关盲点; andO 3为了制定创新的政策，巩固和实施一致的人权方法来处理乱葬坑问题。人员损失的规模和社会意义需要一个开拓性的，在这方面，必须采取多学科方法，以法律为基础，保护遗址、遗骸以及幸存者的权益。该项目由国际标准设定《关于万人坑保护和调查的伯恩茅斯议定书》的作者领导，其信念是，万人坑无论位于何处，都值得建立一个全面的人权框架，以确保其保护、调查和利益攸关方的参与。该方案以法律的方法论为坚实基础，采用多学科方法推动所需的卓越研究，以产生宝贵的、基于事实的知识、理论发展和政策指导，造福受害者、家庭和社区。
