Guatemala races to save 60,000 case files of testimony about abuses during armed conflict

Guatemala is working to preserve 60,000 case files containing testimonies of abuses during its 1960-1996 armed conflict. The files, part of the National Reparations Program, detail atrocities like extrajudicial executions and forced disappearances, and are at risk of being lost amid political challenges. A UNESCO-funded project aims to safeguard the archive before the end of President Bernardo Arévalo's term in 2028.
