Nine years after the violent expulsion of 700,000 Rohingya by the Myanmar military, a ruling is imminent in the world’s first state-level genocide trial before the International Court of Justice (ICJ). To mark the anniversary on August 25, the Society for Threatened Peoples (STP), the Asienhaus Foundation, and representatives of the Rohingya community are organizing a memorial and informational event in Berlin.
During the event, representatives of the Rohingya community, civil society actors, and political figures will reflect on nine years of displacement, resilience, and the Rohingya’s ongoing struggle for rights and recognition. Short video clips from the affected areas and featuring international experts will be shown. This will be followed by a live panel discussion and an open Q&A session.
We cordially invite you to attend:
On Tuesday, August 25, 2026,
from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
at the House of Democracy and Human Rights, Seminar Room VH-1, Greifswalder Str. 4, 10405 Berlin.
The event will be held in English. Registration is required. Please contact Majid Lenz, Myanmar Specialist at the Asienhaus Foundation, at >2;:5]=6?Ko2D:6?92FD]56.
