announces a CALL for participants for the

TRANSITIONAL JUSTICE SCHOOL

If you are a young person, aged 18 to 35, and wish to learn more about the concept of transitional justice, culture of remembrance, the wars of the 90s, war crimes, and the sufferings in the former SFRY and Montenegro, with the goal of contributing to the process of confronting the past, as one of the foundation for democratization and Europeanization of Montenegrin society, then the Transitional Justice School is the programme for you!

The Transitional Justice School, through three modules and a comprehensive programme of lectures, workshops, debates, film screenings, visits to memorial sites or places of suffering, and institutions, enables participants to gain valuable and necessary knowledge that is not yet part of the formal education system.

Sessions within the first module will be held during a four-day programme, while the second module will consist of a three-day study visit and tour of places of suffering in the north and south of Montenegro. The third module will include visits to institutions and meetings with their representatives, with a formal diploma award ceremony for participants who successfully complete the programme.

Sessions will be led by experts focusing on human rights, humanitarian law, international relations, and European integration, coming from academia, the non-governmental sector, international organizations, institutions, media, etc.
