Panel: Genocide Prevention Saturday, April 25, 2009 2:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m.
Expert panel on the prevention of genocide featuring survivors of Bosnia, Rwanda and Darfur
On the occasion of preparations of our program and establishing of our contacts for cooperation with the organizations and ethnic communities, we found out that the Dream for Darfur, humanitarian organization, proclaimed April as a month dedicated to preventive action against genocide.
Remarkably, six genocides have major anniversaries in the month of April – a tragic testament to the international community's inexcusable failure to stop inhuman and barbarous acts.
This April, we – survivors of genocide and mass atrocities, their dissidents, and anti-genocide advocates – will honor those who were lost and those who survived. And we will urge immediate action to stop the ongoing Darfur genocide.
Our collective voices will remind the international community to make its commitment to mass atrocity prevention absolute. Until we do, we are destined to repeat the most shameful chapters in human history.” www.genocidepreventionmonth.org
