country otherwise it risks being ignored and its role will be taken over by more credible entities. In our Minimum Standards for an Effective NPRC, we have stated clearly that ‘the legitimacy of the NPRC does not end with its constitutionality, but perpetuates in the manner in which it is going to conduct its work’. (NTJWG, 2015) 5.0 Conclusion Transitional justice is about prevention. Saying ‘Never Again’ to atrocities. The developments of 2018 have paved way for a potentially progressive 2019 as regards transitional justice processes in Zimbabwe. With the bold steps taken by stakeholders at the symposium, calls for national dialogue gathering momentum in Zimbabwe and the adoption of the transitional justice policy framework by the African Union, there is a fertile ground for the implementation of transitional justice in Zimbabwe. Both official and non-official processes, state and non-state actors can complement each other in driving transitional justice in Zimbabwe. The international community is encouraged to support Zimbabwean stakeholders in ensuring that the current momentum in the push for transitional justice is not lost. 11 STATE OF TRANSITIONAL JUSTICE IN ZIMBABWE 2018 REPORT NATIONAL TRANSITIONAL JUSTICE WORKING GROUP ZIMBABWE
