A Voice For the Voiceless

The Advocacy Project helps marginalized communities to tell their story, claim their rights and produce social change. We recruit graduate students to volunteer as Peace Fellows with partners.

The Impact of Service



"I look at myself as having the potential to be as strong and caring as the amazing women I met in Kenya."

Kate Cummings (Tufts University) volunteered in 2009 as a Peace Fellow for Vital Voices in Africa.

Challenge

The war in Bosnia broke out in the spring of 1992 and culminated in the Srebrenica massacre, in July 1995. By the time the Dayton Agreement formally put an end to fighting, four months later, one of Europe’s most integrated societies was in ruins and over 200,000 Muslims had been killed. The impact on Srebrenica was particularly devastating. The impact of the war – and the way that it shaped the response of the Srebrenica survivors – is described in these pages.
