THE 2008 GENOCIDE PREVENTION OP-ED WRITING & VIDEO CONTEST


TOOLS
Since the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum opened its doors in 1993, genocide has taken place in Bosnia, Rwanda, and Sudan. Civilians have been threatened in Democratic Republic of Congo, Chechnya, and Burundi. The challenge of preventing and responding to genocide remains urgent.

What advice would you give the next U.S. President on preventing and responding to threats of genocide and related crimes against humanity?

The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum is asking individuals compose a video or write an op-ed responding to the question above. For the first time, the Museum has devised a separate category for video entries. This category is open to everyone. The writing contest is open to all students currently enrolled in a secondary school, college, or graduate program. Upload your video to YouTube or publish your piece in your school or local newspaper and enter it in the Genocide Prevention Op-Ed Writing & Video Contest.
