TFV

Funds provided by the TFV are collected through voluntary contributions. Another source of income would be Court-ordered fines and forfeitures. The costs which arise for the TFV to deliver its work are paid for by the budget of the ICC.

Current Fund volume and supported projects

The total TFV income by November 2009 was € 4.5 million.

Out of these, approximately € 2.2 million were obligated for grants in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Uganda.   Another € 600,000 were allocated for activities to start in 2010 in the Central African Republic.  In addition, a current reserve of € 1 million is available for potential reparations.

Costs of the Board of Directors and the Secretariat of the TFV

According to the Regulations of the Trust Fund for Victims, the members of the Board of Directors “shall act in their personal capacity on a pro bono basis” (Regulation 16). In 2004, the ASP established the Secretariat of the TFV. The Secretariat currently employs six full-time staff and has an approved budget of € 1.3 million for 2009.
