Dialogue on Historical Dialogue and Accountability
Nov.16th
1:30 PM – 3:00PM
Conference Room 5145
The Program on History, Memory, and Conflict at the School for Conflict Analysis and Resolution (S-CAR) is hosting a group of international Fellows from the Alliance for Historical Dialogue and Accountability program at Columbia University’s Institute for the Study of Human Rights.
The Alliance for Historical Dialogue and Accountability Program (AHDA) brings together scholars, students, civil society organizations, journalists, educators, artists, policy makers, and others who work on historical dialogue issues in conflict, post-conflict and post-dictatorial societies. These individuals address the political ramifications of the historical legacy of conflicts, as well as the role and impact of the memory of past violence on contemporary politics, society and culture. More information about the program can be found here. Our fellowship program enables practitioners whose work focuses on human rights and specifically on issues related to dealing with the past in conflict and post-conflict societies to come to Columbia for a semester of study and capacity building. Bios of our 2016 fellows can be found here.
