Abstract

ABSTRACT
A well know maxim as stated by Hendrith Vanlon Smith Jr., “The flow of financial capital dictates the rhythm of social progress” is apt when we talk about funding and financing in any arena as it plays a very crucial in making full use of the resources and improve the efficiency of any institution in any field. This article throws light upon the financing structure of the International Criminal Court. It briefly examines what the position regarding the cost and financing of the ICTY[1], ICTR[2] and various other internationalised institutions before ICC came into picture and talks about the financing of ICC when it was at its nascent stage. Furthermore, it discusses about how budget is prepared, who funds the ICC, for what purpose the funds are used, what are major issues regarding the budget and funding and some suggestion to overcome these challenges.
 

[1] ICTY which is also known as the International Criminal Tribunal for Former Yugoslavia, which was established on 25th May, 1993 by resolution 827 passed by the United Nations. It was an ad hoc court of the United Nations that was established to prosecute the war crimes that had been committed during the Yugoslav Wars and to try their perpetrators. The tribunal was located in The Hague, Netherlands and operated between 1993 and 2017. It had jurisdiction over four clusters of crimes committed on the territory of the former Yugoslavia since 1991: grave breaches of the Geneva Conventions, violations of the laws or customs of war, genocide, and crimes against humanity. 
[2] ICTR which is also known as the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda was an international ad-hoc court established in November 1994 by the United Nations Security Council in Resolution 955 in order to adjudicate people charged for the Rwandan genocide and other serious violations of international law in Rwanda, or by Rwandan citizens in nearby states, between 1 January and 31 December 1994. It was finally dissolved in 2015.
