    "GENOCIDE, IMPUNITY AND JUSTICE"
    AN INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE IN ANTELIAS, LEBANON

    (22-23 APRIL, 2004)



    ANTELIAS, LEBANON - An International conference on Genocide, Impunity and
    Justice which has been initiated by His Holiness Aram I and organized by the
    Armenian Cathoilcosate of Cilicia, will take place in the Headquarters of
    the Armenian Catholicosate of Cilicia, in Antelias, Lebanon.

    The conference will focus on the question of impunity, which will be
    analyzed from juridical, religious and political perspectives. The Armenian
    Genocide, the first genocide of the 20th century (1915) and the Rwandan
    Genocide, the last genocide of the 20th century (1994) will be presented as
    two different cases of impunity. An international body of scholars,
    politicians and academicians will take part in the conference. The
    presidents of Lebanon and Rwanda will send their messages through their
    personal representatives. His Holiness Aram I will give his message at the
    opening session.

    The question of impunity has become a critical issue on the agenda of the
    world community. The conference will provide a framework for people coming
    from different religions and backgrounds to discuss this question in a
    spirit of creative dialogue.

    In the following two weeks you will find on the website of the Catholicosate
    www.cathcil.org the detailed program and schedule of the conference with
    related information. We have limited space to accommodate those interested
    in this conference. You may fill out the attached Application Form, or
