Elisabeth_Baumgartner_07Since 2011 Elisabeth has been the head of swisspeace’s Dealing with the Past program. One of the projects in this program is called “Archives and Dealing with the Past”. The goal of this project is to make a significant contribution to preserving, securing and making accessible archives and records of past human rights violations in countries that have experienced gross human rights violations and serious violations of international humanitarian law and to raise the awareness on the importance of archives and data collections of human rights violations within a broader understanding of dealing with the past initiatives.
