To Whom It May Concern,

I
am writing in support of the Humanitarian Law Center’s proposal for funding from the United States Institute of Peace, to conduct mapping of public memorials in the successor states of the former Yugoslavia.
First let me speak to the merits of the Humanitarian Law Center, an organization whose work I have followed closely for over a decade.

NGOs call on Serbian government to disclose mass graves dating from the Milošević regime

We support the foundation of a State Commission tasked with finding and marking all secret graves created after 1944, and we demand that the government of the Republic of Serbia establish another commission tasked with disclosing the remaining mass graves in Serbia, created during the time of the armed conflicts waged on the territory of the former Yugoslavia and also tasked with investigating allegations that bodies of Kosovo Albanian victims were incinerated in the Mačkatica factory, in the Obilić thermal-electric power plant, in Niš and Smederevo during the NATO bombardment of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (SRJ).
