Finding Justice: From Srebrenica to Colombia | Ep 41

Finding Justice: From Srebrenica to Colombia | Ep 41

Join us on this poignant episode of the Beyond Borders Scotland podcast as we explore stories of survival, justice, and reconciliation in the aftermath of some of the most devastating conflicts of recent times. Hosted by David Hamilton, trustee of the Scottish educational charity Beyond Srebrenica, this episode delves into the horrors of the Srebrenica genocide and the ongoing efforts to address its aftermath through educational initiatives and partnerships.

David introduces Nedzad Avdic, a survivor of the Srebrenica massacre, who shares his harrowing escape from execution and his life thereafter. Nezhad’s testimony not only recalls the tragic events but also embodies the resilience of the human spirit in the face of unimaginable adversity.

Additionally, we are joined by Judge Roberto Carlos Vidal Lopez from the Colombian special jurisdiction for peace. Judge Lopez discusses the innovative approaches being used in Colombia, focusing on restorative justice to heal and rebuild communities torn apart by decades of armed conflict.

This session is expertly chaired by Oscar Guardiola Rivera, professor of human rights and political philosophy at Birkbeck Law School in London, who guides the conversation with insightful questions and reflections on the themes of justice and human rights.

Featuring:

  • David Hamilton - Host and Trustee, Beyond Srebrenica
  • Nezhad Davdish - Survivor of the Srebrenica Genocide
  • Judge Roberto Carlos Vidal Lopez - Colombian Special Jurisdiction for Peace
  • Oscar Guardiola Rivera - Chair, Professor of Human Rights and Political Philosophy
