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.

Goals

BOSFAM (Bosnian Family) and AP are working together to support the widows of Srebrenica and their friends and families. The quilt is a living memorial to all who were murdered in the July 1995 massacre. This partnership has the following goals:

Keep the memory of the Srebrenica massacre alive through the quilt.

Produce panels indefinitely for family members who lost relatives, or for sympathisers.

Set up trainings in Srebrenica that will continue the art of traditional weaving and support the Muslim community in Srebrenica.

Generate funds for the quilt project and for the weavers of BOSFAM, who lost relatives in the massacre.

Encourage advocacy around the quilt that will bring those responsible for the massacre to justice.
