International Day of Commemoration and Dignity of the Victims of the Crime of Genocide and of the Prevention of this Crime.
As the world marks the 73rd anniversary of the establishment of the Genocide Convention, young people in Rwanda, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and in Northern Iraq, warn that the world is in danger of facing further genocides.
In Rwanda, Gatari Egide, the President of GAERG, a Genocide Survivors Organization, says that young people need to be educated against the dangers of hate speech and inter-communal
violence. The 1994 Genocide against the Tutsis in Rwanda destroyed a vast number of families.
In Bosnia and Herzegovina, young leaders from the Bosniak and Serb communities take part in communal bridge-building, saying the older generations have failed to move on from past hostilities. Memories of the 1995 Srebrenica genocide, when 8,000 men and boys
were killed by Bosnian Serb forces, are still fresh.
And in Northern Iraq, where the Yazidi community faced atrocity crimes from the ISIL terrorist group in 2014, hundreds of thousands are still displaced.
Samia Qassim Mulhem, a Yazidi Human Rights Activist, Poet and Educator, works with displaced children to provide them with psychological support.
December 9th has become the "International Day of Commemoration and Dignity of the Victims of the Crime of Genocide and of the Prevention of this Crime."
