The International Campaign to End Genocide exists to predict, prevent, stop, and punish genocide and other forms of mass murder. We seek to raise awareness and influence public policy concerning potential and actual genocide. Our purpose is to build an international movement to prevent and stop genocide.
We address genocide as it is defined in the Genocide Convention: the intentional destruction, in whole or in part, of a national, ethnic, racial or religious group, as such. We also address political mass murder, ethnic cleansing, and other genocide-like crimes.
The International Campaign to End Genocide works with an international network of organizations to educate the general public and policy makers about the causes, processes, and warning signs of genocide. We promote an international movement to create the institutions and political will to prevent and stop genocide and bring its perpetrators to justice.
