We will be hosting a number of guest speakers from around the world at a conference including Professor Ilan Pappe of the University of Exeter and Hasan Nuhanovic a survivor from the Bosnian genocide.  IHRC are calling for all students, teachers, parents & activists to get involved and raise awareness of the grave atrocities that have taken place across the world over the centuries and the many that continue to exist today.   So please ask your local schools, local religious centres and local communities to get involved in creating a movement to stop genocides by taking part in Genocide Memorial Day.  Log on to www.genocidememorialday.org  for further information or email gmd@ihrc.org if you have any enquiries.

IHRC are holding a poetry competition for 11-18 year olds – details will be given out at the conference
