Home Genocide Prevention Month

APRIL is Genocide Prevention Month

Advocates for genocide prevention will come together in April 2009 to call for world leaders to prevent mass atrocities.

Genocide Prevention Month will send a powerful message to world leaders that they should take meaningful steps to prevent another Holocaust, Rwanda, Cambodia, Srebrenica, or Darfur.
