Searching for Colombia’s Missing Persons
Monday, October 21 | 3:30pm - 5:00pm EDT
Join USIP and the Embassy of Colombia for a public presentation on the Missing Persons Search Unit’s remarkable forensic and restorative work, as well as the launch of a temporary photo exhibit detailing the unit’s search efforts. Both the presentation and exhibit will illustrate all facets of the holistic search process— from DNA sampling in sterile laboratories to long, sweat-soaked afternoons digging at mass grave sites and candlelit vigils for victims who have been finally laid to rest.
Those who attend this public event in person will also be among the first to view the full photo exhibit in USIP’s Great Hall. |
