Baku: The issue of reparations for historical injustices against peoples of African descent needs to be addressed within an institutional framework at the United Nations level. Catherine Stella Namakula, Chairperson of the Working Group of Experts on People of African Descent and Founder of the Africa Reparation Hub, emphasized this point during an international conference titled 'Belgium's Colonial Injustice and the 101-Year Path to Reparations.'
