SUMMARY:Ordinary Civilians\, Extraordinary Acts: Syrian Responses to Mass Atrocities
DESCRIPTION:Twelve years after the start of the Syrian crisis\, civilians continue to suffer mass atrocities. Areas of the country remain under attack by the Syrian government and its allies\, and more than 100\,000 people have been detained or disappeared. The devastating earthquake of early February struck people in Syria and Turkey who had previously fled mass atrocities. In the case of northwest Syria\, the impact and aftermath of the earthquake placed an incredible burden on civil society actors to scramble to the rescue—the same groups who for years have rescued victims of mass atrocities. \nJoin the Museum’s Simon-Skjodt Center for the Prevention of Genocide for a conversation with Syrian civil society leaders who are spearheading the charge to protect civilians and hold perpetrators of mass atrocities accountable. Experts will discuss how Syrians\, especially Syrian women\, are responding to mass atrocities today\, and how the world can best support them. \nRemarks\nAlfred Münzer\, Holocaust Survivor and Volunteer\, United States Holocaust Memorial Museum \nSenator James Risch\, Ranking Member\, Senate Foreign Relations Committee \nRepresentative French Hill\, House Foreign Affairs Committee \nEthan Goldrich\, Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Near Eastern Affairs\, United States Department of State \nAmbassador (Ret.)

SUMMARY:DOCUMENTING TERROR IN SYRIA: WHAT IS THE IMPACT OF PHOTOS?
DESCRIPTION:PSIA is honored to host the first-ever exhibition of the Caesar photos in France: Inside Syrian Regime’s Prisons (27 to 31 March) and organize a panel discussion on Documenting Terror in Syria: What is the Impact of Photos? (29 March) \nDocumenting Terror in Syria: What is the Impact of Photos?\nWednesday 29 March\, 5:00 to 7:00 pm \nAmphi Chapsal\, 27 rue Saint-Guillaume \n\nRegistration for internal guests\nRegistration for external guests\n\nPrisons have played a key role in maintaining the al-Assad regime in Syria. Since 2011\, it is estimated that over 200 000 people have suffered arbitrary detention and experienced torture in these prisons\, resulting in tens of thousands of extrajudiciary executions. \nIn 2014\, a former official photographer and anonymous defector “Caesar” leaked some 55 000 pictures\, which have been of crucial importance to fight a culture of impunity. These photos were shown to the United Nations Security Council with the objective of prosecuting the Syrian regime for crimes against humanity. \nThis roundtable will reflect on the power of images and their role in fighting for justice in Syria and beyond. Based on their experience as human rights defenders and legal experts\, the speakers will discuss the impact of images in shaping public\, judicial and political discourses in times of conflict. The event will also explore the conditions under which to rebuild societies torn by violence and whether there can ever be peace without justice. \nWelcome Remarks by Arancha Gonzalez\, Dean of PSIA \nIntroduction and moderation by Céline Cantat\, lecturer\, PSIA \nGuest speakers: \n\nClémence Bectarte\, Lawyer\, Coordinator of FIDH’s Litigation Action Group\nMazen Darwich\, Syrian human rights lawyer (via zoom)\nMouaz Moustafa\, Executive Director\, Syrian Emergency Task Force\n\nInside Syrian Regime’s Prisons\nCaesar is a former military photographer and anonymous defector who was conscripted by the Assad regime to take pictures of people who died while being detained in military and intelligence branches. When he noticed that Syrian civilians were being tortured and killed\, he began to amass photographic evidence of such atrocities. Between 2011 and 2013\, Caesar collected more than 55\,000 photos\, which were exfiltrated from Syria. Today\, “The Caesar Files” constitute first-hand documentation of the scale and brutality of the atrocities perpetrated by the Assad regime. \nTRIGGER WARNING: Viewers should be made aware that the photos presented in the exhibit are graphic and disturbing. They depict in an unfiltered way the torture and mass killings the prisoners experienced in the Syrian prisons. Viewers discretion is advised. \nOpening Hours: \nThe photo exhibit will be open to the Sciences Po community (upon presentation of a Sciences Po ID and without registration) from Monday 27 March to Friday 31 March\, from 10:00 am to 6:00 pm ; and until 9:00 pm on Wednesday 29 March. \nIn addition it will be open to the general public (upon registration and within space capacity) on the following dates: Wednesday 29 March from 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm\, and from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm ; Thursday 30 March from 2:00 pm to 6:00 pm. \nGuided visits will be led by Omar Alshogre\, Syrian human rights defender and former political prisoner on Wednesday 29 March at 4:15pm and at 7:30 pm\, and on Thursday 30 March at 2:45 pm and 5:00 pm. Open to both the Sciences Po community and the general public upon registration and within space capacity. \nRoom B104\, 1 place Saint-Thomas \n\nRegistration for internal guests for guided visits\nRegistration for external guests for the exhibition and for guided visits\nEvent’s Zoom link\n\nThe photo exhibit is co-organized with the Syrian Emergency Task Force.
