LOCATION:Exeter Guildhall
DESCRIPTION; CHARSET=UTF-8 :On the evening of Thursday 4 July the Societies and Cultures Institute is partnering with the British and Irish Association for Holocaust Studies to support a public lecture in the Exeter Guildhall delivered by Dr James Smith. Dr Smith is the deputy chair and founder of the Aegis Trust, which works globally to prevent genocide and human rights abuses, and he was in the 1990s also co-founder of the National Holocaust Centre and Museum in Nottinghamshire.

In this talk he will be reflecting on the process of setting up that museum alongside his brother Stephen Smith in a period when public memory of the Holocaust was given relatively little attention, and how this then developed into the follow-up foundation of the Kigali Genocide Memorial in Rwanda.http://www.exeter.ac.uk/events/details/?event=14045
