Criminal expertise plays an important role in the application of scientific methods to clarify human rights violations. There are countless cases in which expert examinations were decisive for the identification of violations of rights, thus not allowing the perpetuation of impunity, nor the permanence of cases of innocent people paying for crimes they did not commit. In this context, this call for articles intends to promote works that aim at the development of scientific methods of investigation that promote human rights and the dignity of the human person, with special attention to validation research and standardization of expert procedures, data systematization, and capillarization of official expertise of a criminal nature.
