The Alliance of Genocide Victim Communities (AGVC) is dedicated to preventing and ending genocide through a multifaceted approach that includes awareness raising, advocacy, justice and accountability, education, and evidence collection and documentation.
We envision a world where genocide is no longer a threat, and where all people can live in peace, dignity, and freedom.
To achieve our goals, we will:
01
Raise awareness about the reality and consequences of genocide, and the urgent need to prevent and respond to it.
03
Hold perpetrators of genocide accountable for their crimes, and seek justice for victims and survivors.
05
Educate the public about the history and dynamics of genocide, and empower individuals and communities to take action to prevent it.
07
Celebrate the ongoing existence of every genocide victim community’s people and culture.
02
Advocate for coherent and consistent human rights policies in Canada, and work with policymakers to ensure that human rights are protected and promoted both domestically and internationally.
04
Work to prevent genocide by identifying and addressing the root causes of violence and discrimination, and promoting tolerance, diversity, and inclusivity.
06
Collect and document evidence of genocide, and use this evidence to support legal proceedings, advocacy efforts, and public awareness campaigns.
The Alliance of Genocide Victim Communities is committed to building a strong, diverse, peaceful and inclusive movement to prevent and end genocide and to ensure that the voices of survivors and victims are heard and respected.
