Genocide and mass murder
took more lives during the 20th century than all wars combined. In the
21st century we have the ability to end genocide forever and build a
more just and peaceful world. Through strong and effective international
institutions, coupled with the necessary political will, the
world can end this egregious human rights crime.
YOU have the ability to end
genocide forever.
By taking concerted,
targeted action you can help ensure that the pledge "Never
again" is upheld in the 21st century and beyond.
The Campaign to End Genocide has six
goals.
The links to the left will connect you to each topic area.
- Creation of effective
early-warning structures within the UN to detect and analyze the warning signs of violent conflict and
genocide-- to be better able to take action before the genocide starts.
- Reform
of UN decision-making structures so that action to prevent or stop
genocide cannot be blocked by the Security Council veto.
- Establishment of a powerful
and effective United Nations rapid response capacity for all peace
operations.
- Full financial and political
support of the International Criminal Court to prosecute those
accused of genocide at the first signs of mass murder.
- Full and timely payment of U.N. assessments and reliable funding for U.N.
peacekeeping.
- Enhancement of the political will to
support the governments' efforts to take effective action to prevent and stop genocide.
