30 godina od genocida: Srebrenica, Kigali i New York ujedinjeni u sjećanju
The fifth annual Srebrenica Youth School, held from July 7th to 12th, united young people from Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Western Balkans, and around the world to delve into transitional justice and honor the victims of the Srebrenica genocide. This commitment to remembrance extended globally as our team attended the first-ever commemoration of the Srebrenica genocide at the United Nations headquarters, where a special exhibition created by the Srebrenica Memorial Center, PCRC and Mothers of Srebrenica were unveiled, featuring projects like Memento, Mother's Scarf, and Srebrenica Heroines. The journey of remembrance continued in Kigali, Rwanda, where we participated in the Aegis Trust conference on peace and transitional justice, and visited the Kigali Genocide Memorial. These three cities—Srebrenica, New York, and Kigali—are now united in a shared mission of honoring the past, educating the present, and shaping a more just future.
Peta po redu Škola za mlade Srebrenica, održana od 7. do 12. jula, okupila je mlade iz Bosne i Hercegovine, Zapadnog Balkana i cijelog svijeta kako bi istražili tranzicijsku pravdu i odali počast žrtvama genocida u Srebrenici. Ovogodišnja posvećenost sjećanju imala je i globalni karakter, budući da je naš tim prisustvovao prvoj ikada komemoraciji genocida u Srebrenici u sjedištu Ujedinjenih naroda, gdje je otvorena posebna izložba koju su kreirali Memorijalni centar Srebrenica, CPI i Majke Srebrenice, a predstavljeni su projekti poput Memento, Majčina marama i Heroine Srebrenice. Put sjećanja nastavio se u Kigaliju, Ruanda, gdje smo učestvovali na konferenciji Aegis Trusta o miru i tranzicijskoj pravdi, kada smo i posjetili Memorijalni centar u Kigaliju. Ova tri grada—Srebrenica, New York i Kigali—sada su ujedinjena u zajedničkoj misiji odavanja počasti prošlosti, edukacije sadašnjosti i oblikovanja pravednije budućnosti.

The film is directed and edited by Mirko Pincelli, with production by Pinch Media and ŠTO TE NEMA Inc., and co-produced by the Post-Conflict Research Center.After fifteen years of traveling the world, the monument finally arrived at its final destination, where survivors gathered at the site of the tragedy to pour coffee into thousands of cups in memory of the victims.

Dok kolektivno tuguju, bolna pitanja i dalje odjekuju: Šta znači “nikad više” u svijetu u kojem se počinjeni zločini i dalje negiraju?
