The International Day of Remembrance and Tribute to the Victims of Terrorism

Summary

 

On August 21, the IPU will mark the International Day of Remembrance and Tribute to the Victims of Terrorism with a high-level webinar focused on Educational Policies for Preventing Terrorism and Empowering Victims. 

The event will gather parliamentarians, education experts, civil society, and victims’ representatives to discuss how inclusive, victim-centered education can prevent violent extremism and support recovery, especially among young victims. Parliaments play a crucial role in promoting laws and policies that foster peace, human rights, and social cohesion while recognizing the unique needs of those affected by terrorism.
