Due to the deteriorating security situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Srebrenica Memorial Center was forced to temporarily close its doors on March 7. The decision was made to protect employees, collaborators, guests, and visitors, as the center stated that it cannot operate without adequate security guarantees.

In response, the center initiated a global remembrance and resistance campaign called #SrebrenicaShutdown, urging institutions worldwide to join in solidarity. As part of this initiative, museums, memorial centers, and other institutions around the world closed their exhibition spaces for five minutes today at 12 am. The campaign received widespread support, including from Holocaust memorials in Europe, America, and Africa.

“This initiative has sent a powerful message that the truth about genocide cannot be erased, and remembrance will not be silenced. The Srebrenica Memorial Center’s call was met with international support, including from the Johannesburg Holocaust Memorial, Simon Wiesenthal Museum, Soldiers Memorial Museum, and the US Holocaust Memorial Museum, among many others,” the center stated.

Within just 24 hours, messages of solidarity arrived from 17 countries, as well as from genocide survivor organizations in Rwanda, Holocaust remembrance groups, embassies, and Bosnian diaspora organizations worldwide.
