ICMEMOHRI CONFERENCE 2023 Conference

We are pleased to announce our first conference as ICMEMOHRI will take place in Spain October 1-6, Cultural Policies on Memory for a Democratic Europe: the Role of Memorial and Human Rights Museums in Promoting Truth, Justice, and Reparations for an Equitable Future. We begin with a pre-conference meeting in Barcelona and Portbou and then travel to Madrid where we will be special guests at the conference organized by the Ministry of the Presidency, Court Relations, and Democratic Memory. We will also have the opportunity to hear from our colleagues during an ICMEMOHRI session of presentations.

We have done our utmost to avoid any fees to register and the conference in Madrid 4-6 October is free, but for those joining us in Barcelona, there are transportation costs from Barcelona to Portbou and then on to Madrid which are covered by that registration fee.

Registration is available below:
