Lundin War Crimes Trial

This is the Lundin War Crimes Trial, a podcast-series produced by PAX and Global Idé, that follows the criminal trial in which two executives of a Swedish oil company, Lundin, will be tried for aiding abetting war crimes committed in Sudan between 1999-2003. The company is also charged for profiting from war crimes in what is now part of South Sudan. During the period the company was active 200,000 people were forced to leave their homes and 12,000 people were killed. Can a Swedish court bring justice to the survivors of the oil war?

    E9: The OMV Case and Rethinking CSR

    The OMV Case and Rethinking CSR Around the world, there are more and more cases involving companies' complicity in human rights abuses. In the Sudan operation, Lundin cooperated with two companies: Petronas of Malaysia and OMV from Austria. An Austrian NGO has just filed a complaint against OMV, accusing them of crimes in South Sudan together with Lundin. Much of the evidence presented in the complaint comes from the indictment against Lundin. We have invited one of the lawyers who has helped prepare the case to give us the details of the process ahead. We will also discuss how legislation has changed and what effect this has on companies today. Are companies at greater risk of being prosecuted for operations today? And does this lead to multinational corporations taking more responsibility for the environmental and social effects of their operations? Participants:  - Astrid Reisinger Coracini, Senior Lecturer and Researcher in International Law who also serves on the Advisory Board of CEHRI – the Vienna based Centre for the Enforcement of Human Rights International, which prepared the complaint against OMV together with the Dutch peace organization PAX. - Professor David Whyte, Director of the Centre for Climate Crime and Climate Justice at Queen Mary University of London.  Host:   - Halima Athumani Background:  This is the Lundin War Crimes Trial, that is brought to you by Pax and Global Idé. The music in this podcast is made by the artist JJ Kang and edited by Roos Boer, producer and editor Kajsa Sörman. Visit unpaiddebt.org for more background and updates from the trial. There you may also listen to more interviews with victims and experts, read expert analysis, an interactive map of attacks in Lundin’s concession area and access background information about the case.
