Ways of Remembering
Memories, Representations, Contexts
The conversation series, Ways of Remembering: Memories, Representations, Contexts, will explore the current state of memory studies, with a particular focus on violent and contested histories, and the various ways in which these histories are represented or silenced. In each session, guest scholars and cultural practitioners from a diverse range of contexts and disciplines will engage in critical conversations about specific cases of memorialisation and cultural representation of difficult pasts.

Navigating the Path to Transitional Justice in Myanmar
The course, that we organize with the New University in Exile Consortium, is distinct in its singular focus on the enduring conflict in Myanmar and the challenges and endeavors to secure justice for the victims from the transitional period (i.e., the partial civilian government during 2011-2021) to post-coup Myanmar (Feb 2021- present). It provides a comprehensive grasp of transitional justice and its implementation, with a specific spotlight on the prosecution process and a case study of Myanmar. This course is crafted to give participants the knowledge and skills to navigate the intricate terrain of transitional justice in Myanmar despite the legal and political hurdles.
