Graduate Certificate in Holocaust and Genocide/Atrocity Prevention
The Graduate Certificate in Holocaust and Genocide/Atrocity Prevention (H-GAP) will teach students about historic and current genocides and atrocities, and build foundational knowledge of best practices for identifying threats of atrocities and for implementing strategies to prevent future atrocities. Building upon historic examples of the Holocaust and other atrocities that have shaped the language and scope of the field, students will explore emerging scholarship about how identity issues, climate change, political trends and migration patterns impact the risks of genocide and mass atrocities; and about how to maximize the role of civil society actors, local governments, and international bodies in effective prevention efforts.
