Whose 'truth'? Exposing human rights abuses in Greece
Phevos Simeonidis, Forensic and OSINT Researcher
Monday 26 June 2023, 1pm to 2pm (BST), Online via Zoom https://www.york.ac.uk/news-and-events/events/public-lectures/summer-2023/whose-truth/
This lecture dives into the concept of "truth", as it's being deployed or contested when it comes to exposing human rights abuses in Greece. Using a multidisciplinary approach from the humanities, it explores power dynamics, storytelling, and how truth is understood in relation to human rights violations in the EU borders and beyond. Using Greece as a case study, the lecture delves into the recent historical and political contexts that shaped these abuses over time, and the activist/media responses. The lecture also explores the different narratives that emerge and the power struggles between victims, perpetrators, and society. while also discussing the roles of human rights organizations, media, and grassroots movements in shedding light on abuses and seeking justice.
Co-organised by CITY College, University of York Europe Campus
