Visit of the Winners of the 2020 and 2021 Mignone Award

The winners of the 2020 and 2021 Mignone Award, Marguerite Clerie Bouchereau (Haiti) and Carlos Armando Juárez Ramírez (Guatemala), respectively, visited the Museum. Bouchereau represents the Fondation Devoir de Memoire, a pioneer in the valorization of Human Rights. Juárez Ramírez belongs to the Mutual Support Group, an organization of relatives of victims of enforced disappearance in Guatemala during the country’s internal armed conflict.

Statements by the participants:

“I feel the same way as the first time I came. My dad was also detained and disappeared, and I would like to be able to honor him with a place like this in my country. I like that it has stayed the same way it was, because it tells the story in a different way.»

“It is a reminder of cruelty and lack of humanity, but it also evokes how resistance and hope can be reborn in many voices to prevent these events from happening.”
