On 28-30 March, the Office participated in the launch of the Latin American Network for Genocide and Mass Atrocity Prevention. This Network has been established under the leadership of Argentina (Secretariat for Human Rights of the Ministry of Justice, Department of Human Rights of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Worship), Brazil (Secretariat of Human Rights at the Office of the President), and the Auschwitz Institute for Peace and Reconciliation. This network, comprising 18 participating States, aims to develop a community of genocide prevention-sensitive civil servants and to contribute to regional dialogue on individual and collective efforts for the prevention of genocide and mass atrocity crimes in the region and beyond. The Office endorsed the initiative and proposed options to strengthen regional cooperation on this matter.
