Documentation of the Armenian Genocide

Documentation of the Armenian Genocide involves collecting and preserving evidence of the systematic mass killing and forced deportation of Armenians by the Ottoman Empire between 1915 and 1923. This includes official records, photographs, eyewitness testimonies, letters, and international reports that establish the scale, methods, and circumstances of the genocide. Such documentation aims to affirm historical truth, support acknowledgment, and foster justice and remembrance for the victims. Accurate and comprehensive records are vital for preventing denial, fostering reconciliation, and ensuring that this tragic event remains historically understood.
