- Based on author's thesis (doctoral - King's College London, 2018) issued under title: Accounting for violence : the production, power and ownership of the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda's archive.
- "International criminal trials produce an overwhelming volume of information. The International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda's (ICTR) judicial archive, based in Arusha, Tanzania, alone contains thousands of linear metres of documents. Sitting at the heart of the ICTR's archive is the testimony of the witnesses, which formed the main evidence base at the ICTR. This totals approximately 26,000 hours of testimony, produced by 3,200 witnesses across 6,000 trial days."--ECIP introduction.
