Preparations for the second scientific conference on Srebrenica Genocide begun
In order to commemorate the 27th anniversary of the genocide against Bosniaks in the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Universities of Tuzla and Sarajevo, and the Institute for Research of Crimes against Humanity and International Law and the Institute of History plan to organize an international scientific conference “Consequences of the Genocide against Bosniaks in Srebrenica: Social, Economic, Demographic and Cultural Development of Srebrenica from 1995 to 2022.” The Conference is planned to be held in Tuzla, on 15 November next year. On that occasion, the first session of the Organizing and Scientific Committee of the Conference was held today at the Rectorate of the University of Tuzla.
After the first international conference held last year on the genocide against Bosniaks, Srebrenica 1995-2020: causes, scale and consequences, the second one is being prepared, which will be held on 15 November next year. Talking about the Srebrenica genocide in the language of facts is extremely important from a scientific point of view, especially at a time when the deniers of this, convicted and proven crime from the Hague Tribunal are becoming louder.
The topic of the conference focuses on several case studies that will shed light on the consequences of genocide on the specific life circumstances of the citizens of Srebrenica.
Academician Mirko Pejanović, President of the Scientific Committee of the Conference, considers the Conference to be of great importance. “There is primarily economic development, employment, return, demographic revitalization, and it is planned to investigate the state of communal infrastructure, the connection of MZ with the city center and a group of researchers who will investigate the development and renewal of interethnic trust” says Pejanović.
The discussion and project approach of a full understanding of what was happening, as well as the perspective of the consequences of the Srebrenica genocide through this large project, are fully supported by the Government of TK.
The Second conference "Consequences of the Genocide against Bosniaks in Srebrenica: Social, Economic, Demographic and Cultural Development of Srebrenica from 1995 to 2022” will be held in Tuzla, on 15 November next year.
