Media and Mass Atrocity: the Rwanda Genocide and Beyond


December 01, 2017 to December 03, 2017


A major international round table - Media and Mass Atrocity: the Rwanda Genocide and Beyond

As the 25th anniversary of the 1994 Rwanda genocide approaches, there is still much to learn about the nexus between mass atrocity and the media, an issue laid bare by the Rwanda tragedy. The roundtable will bring together an international network around the question of media and mass atrocity.

Members of the public are invited to join in this three-day event, to observe the proceedings, take part in question-and-answer sessions and interact with the members of the roundtable.

But participants must register in advance of the event. The full conference registration package includes a dinner and event opening ceremony on Friday, Dec. 1 (being held in the Atrium on the second floor of Richcraft Hall), as well as coffee breaks and lunches on Saturday, Dec. 2 and Sunday, Dec. 3 during the roundtable, being held in the third-floor conference room of the Residence Commons building at Carleton. The registration fee is being charged on a cost-recovery basis.

Registration fee:
$125 - institutional fee (if your registration costs are covered by your employer)
$100 - individual registration and seniors
$40 - student registration fee, for students currently registered in a post-secondary institution.

Time: Fri, 4:30 PM - Sun, 3:00 PM
