Victim Recognition is a normative construct in transitional justice that identifies and affirms the experiences of individuals or groups who have suffered harm due to systemic violence or human rights violations, distinguishing it from broader reconciliation mechanisms by centering symbolic and legal validation of victimhood as a prerequisite for redress and societal healing.
