Memory Project

The Memory Project is a psychosocial project which operates under Office on Missing Persons and Forensics - OMPF. The Memory Project it is an effort to commemorate missing persons in a permanent and non-politicized way, and always tries to follow the line which will show that all ethnic groups in Kosovo have undergone similar experiences of loss. The project itself encompasses several proposed initiatives which have been realized in several phases of the Memory Project. The initial phase included the "Theatre Initiative" and "Forum Theatre". The Memory Project incorporates its main initiative "Oral History Interviews", the main objective of this initiative was to create a resource centre - the archive with a library of video testimonies of family members of missing persons. This oral history initiative gave the unique chance or the opportunity to the family members of missing persons to talk and tell their personal experiences, individual experiences and or of their community or region where they came from.
