Intention and aim of the website
This homepage is the website of the transnational NGO alliance and campaign “No Amnesty on Genocide!” (“No Amnesty on Genocide!”). The aim is to come to terms with the genocide against the OvaHerero and Nama in present-day Namibia and to demand full recognition, an apology from the German government and reparations.
The homepage is also a collection of information and materials, literature, documents and media from the many – globally active – activists. It thus provides an insight into the decades-long struggle for justice.
