The commemoration of the 30th anniversary of the Srebrenica genocide has begun at the European Union headquarters in Brussels, through a partnership between the European External Action Service, the Srebrenica Memorial Center, and the Post-Conflict Research Center.
On the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the Srebrenica genocide, the Post-Conflict Research Center is proud to announce the 6th edition of the Srebrenica Youth School.
David J. Simon, a Senior Lecturer in Global Affairs and the Director of the Genocide Studies Program at Yale University, emphasizes that substantive discussions about genocide are crucial to prevent mass atrocities.
To understand mass atrocities in a global historical context, it is essential to draw connections between them. This encourages critical thinking, generates constructive knowledge, and furthers our general understanding of these events and what can be learned from them. Tali Nates, the founder and director of the Johannesburg Holocaust & Genocide Center in South Africa, advocates this approach.
