GENOCOST 2024: A Global Commemoration

/

On 2nd August 2024, the world came together to mark a significant event organised by the Congolese Action Youth Platform (CAYP) in collaboration with the civil society and grassroots activists around the world to remember the victims of the Congolese genocide for economic gain. This initiative, known as GENOCOST, took place simultaneously in 26 cities across the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and numerous other cities worldwide, including Atlanta, Brussels, Frankfurt, London, Lyon, Martinique, Nairobi, Ouagadougou, Sao Paulo, and Stockholm. The commemoration aimed to honour those who lost their lives in recent atrocities and to raise global awareness of the horrific crimes committed for economic exploitation in the DRC.

Génocost 2024 : Appel à la Dignité et à la Justice

/

En 2013, la Congolese Action Youth Platform (CAYP) basée à Londres a remis en question le cadre juridique du « génocide ». Face au manque persistant de démocratie et de justice, ils ont créé GENOCOST – un cri de justice contre le génocide commis à des fins économiques en République Démocratique du Congo depuis 1885.

Genocost 2024: A Call for Dignity and Justice.

/

In 2013, the Congolese Youth Platform (CAYP) based in London challenged the legal framework of ‘genocide.’ Moved by the ongoing lack of democracy and justice, they created GENOCOST—a cry for justice against genocide for economic gain in the Democratic Republic of Congo since 1885. This year, as we commemorate the 11th anniversary, join us in honouring the victims on August 2nd. Through this video, we are raising global consciousness. Stand with us in solidarity as we demand accountability and ensure that Congolese voices—our voices—are heard. Together, let’s ensure that the voices of our victims are never forgotten.
