Against forgetting - Remembering Srebrenica

Bosnien und Herzegowina

Important: We only register participants from Germany!
2025 marks the 30th anniversary of the Srebrenica massacre. This international youth exchange in Sarajevo will shed light on the Srebrenica genocide and the historical and cultural context of the conflict in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Together with young people from Bosnia-Herzegovina, France and Slovenia, we will analyse important historical events in workshops, visits and discussions. We will trace the development from the assassination of the Habsburg heir to the throne Franz Ferdinand, which led to the First World War, to the Yugoslav Wars in the 1990s. The programme includes a visit to the Srebrenica memorial site, interactive workshops on the topic of remembrance and the joint design of a memorial monument.

This programme offers a unique opportunity to engage in reconciliation, collective memory and peace-building while reflecting with international peers on the role of the past in shaping a peaceful future.
