Statements - Action - Legislation
"We speak not only for ourselves, but for those whose voices were silenced" This section brings together testimonies, public declarations, legal struggles, and political actions related to the Ovaherero and Nama genocides. From community voices to parliamentary motions and court cases, it captures the global demand for justice, truth, and recognition.
Information and Resources
"History is not only written by the powerful, but remembered by the steadfast.” This section serves as a central repository of documents, research, and historical records related to the Ovaherero, Mbanderu, and Nama genocides. It provides access to scholarly work, survivor testimonies, policy statements, court cases, and community-driven initiatives to support education, remembrance, and advocacy.
Stolen Ancestral Remains
"Return is not just imperative — It is moral, spiritual" Colonial powers stole more than bodies—they violated culture, belief, and dignity. This section shares the ongoing efforts to repatriate stolen human remains, highlighting advocacy by descendants, international campaigns, and the deeper call for ethical remembrance and ancestral honor.
Genocide Survivors Project
"We are the living testimony" Survivors and their descendants carry the weight of memory and the will to be heard. Through stories and oral histories, this project preserves living truths—honoring those who endured and reminding future generations that silence is never an option.
Genocide Anthologies
"Every story told is an act of resistance" Collected from families, writers, and oral historians, these anthologies speak across time. They will give voice to trauma, resilience, and legacy—shared through literature, interviews, and testimony. They are acts of healing, reclamation, and storytelling justice.
Name the Genocide Victims
"To name is to remember. To remember is to resist erasure." Restoring the names of those who perished is a powerful act of dignity. This space is dedicated to recording and publishing the names of genocide victims—affirming their humanity, resisting historical erasure, and offering a sacred act of remembrance.
