How to safeguard the memory of Srebrenica genocide

Today marks the 27th anniversary of the Srebrenica genocide, the most brutal phase of the three-and-a-half-year genocide committed against Bosniaks in Bosnia and Herzegovina from 1992 to 1995. On 11 July, the remains of 50 Bosniak victims will be laid to rest in Srebrenica.

Over the past decade and a half, there have been a variety of commemorative practices abroad. The US Congress adopted crucial resolutions in 2005 that commemorated Srebrenica, and the European Parliament followed suit with a much more watered-down resolution in 2009. Some parliaments have since adopted resolutions on Srebrenica. The latest parliaments to do so were Austrian on 6 July this year and Albanian the following day.
