The Guidelines were written by journalist Melina Borčak at the request of the Srebrenica Memorial Center, which unequivocally supports its content and purpose.

For almost 30 years, media across the globe have reduced the story of the Srebrenica Genocide to "8000 Muslim men and boys killed", with every word in the phrase misleading. From the years of siege and famine to the mass rapes and Srebrenica's influence on current events worldwide - there is so much more to write, say and learn about the genocide.

The time has come to do it. Accurately and professionally.

Please read, share and implement our official Guidelines for Accurate Reporting and Speaking About the Srebrenica Genocide.
