Young people from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Montenegro, Kosovo and Serbia interviewed survivors of the Yugoslav wars as a part of BIRN’s Balkan Transitional Justice programme.
They did the interviews after participating in BIRN’s workshop on visual storytelling using war crime archives, which explained how oral history can be a powerful tool in the process of memorialisation, reconciliation and conflict prevention.
All the interviews were produced, filmed and edited by the participants themselves, with mentoring from Balkan Transitional Justice programme staff.
