“Tools of Genocide” ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This report is based on research conducted by Fortify Rights from October 2018 to August 2019. Fortify Rights Human Rights Specialist John Quinley III is the lead researcher and author of this report. The writing, research, and editing team included Fortify Rights CEO Matthew Smith, Executive Director Amy Smith, and Legal Fellow Jacob Bogart. Fortify Rights Communication Associate Thanaporn Saleephol reviewed and provided editing support. A Rohingyaled research team in Bangladesh and Fortify Rights consultant Andrew Riley provided quantitative data that informed the report. Consultant Mayyu Ali and two Rohingya researchers, not named here for security reasons, provided research assistance and logistical support. Several interpreters and translators, also not named here for security reasons, assisted with secondary transcriptions of audio files of eyewitness and survivor testimony to enable Fortify Rights to triangulate findings and double-check initial interpretations for accuracy. Fortify Rights’ Visual Design Specialist Iuri Kato created the layout and design of the report. Award-winning photographer Saiful Huq Omi from Counter Foto provided photographs for the report with assistance from Shantanu Majumder. Fortify Rights extends a special thanks to Rohingya survivors and eyewitnesses as well as human rights defenders, aid workers, and others who contributed to the research and documentation and generously shared their time, energy, and experiences with Fortify Rights. Many are unnamed here. Fortify Rights also extends solidarity and support to Myanmar and Bangladesh civil society and Rohingya who are engaged in local, national, and international-level human rights activism and advocacy, often at great personal risk. Special thanks to the generous supporters of Fortify Rights who make our work possible.
