The European Armenian Federation, the Jewish Laic Community Centre
and IBUKA-France have organised the conference.

penalisation of denial: a decision[1] of the European Union which
enforces criminal prosecutions against deniers must be transposed
in the 27 Member States legislations before the end of 2010. The
conference entitled "Denial and Democracy in Europe" must be transposed
in the 27 Member States legislations before the end of 2010. The
conference entitled "Denial and Democracy in Europe" is placed under
the patronage of the European deputy Elmar Brok (German Conservative).
Political officials, lawyers, historians and scholars in social
sciences - great figures in the fight against denial - will present
the common points between denials of the various genocides. They will
aim to convince the European leaders of the need for extending the
penal provisions against all cases of proven denials as allowed by
the European decision.
