• Preventing Genocide: Podcasts and Online Discussions [March 2007]

The podcasts will consider the legacy of Raphael Lemkin, the individual who coined the word "genocide" in 1944; the politics of intervention; and the inspiring work of young anti-genocide activists today...Following each podcast, we will facilitate an online discussion with the expert featured in the most recent podcast. Online discussions are open to the public; you may participate in one or all of the sessions."
