Understanding Srebrenica Massacre Study Tour

To fully understand the 1990ies Bosnian Genocide and at the same time Srebrenica Genocide, there is no better way but to visit Eastern Bosnia, Srebrenica, and Potočari Memorial Centre, and at the same time we can not only talk about Genocide events at just one micro-location (Srebrenica), but we have to put whole Eastern Bosnia into a context of the story. Also, the tour will uncover reasons behind the breakup of Yugoslavia with detailed stories of the worst Genocide in Europe since WW2. During the tour, you will have the honor to visit a local family and have lunch at their homes while getting insight into how local communities live today. At the same time, it will give answers to what Srebrenica is today, what it had been yesterday, and the day before, but most of all what Srebrenica could become in the future if denial as the last phase of Genocide continues to happen.
