We are preparing an international conference in Berlin that will bring together high-profile speakers and participants from around the world. The focus lies on how remembrance, historical responsibility, and human rights are entangled with today’s politics.

Topics include:

• Germany’s memory culture and its colonial blind spots
  
• Unacknowledged genocides and their ongoing legacies
  
• Structural racism, state repression and self-censorship in German Media
  
• The role of the arms industry and climate change
  
• The current and future role of international law
  

The conference will create space for voices too often silenced, and for dialogue across communities marked by violence, resistance, and survival.
