The Pomegranate Foundation's mission is to promote the
understanding and prevention of genocide through the support
of filmmakers, writers, photographers, musicians and other
artists whose projects relate to the experience of genocide,
deportation, ethnic cleansing and other human rights
atrocities. The Foundation also supports the academic study
of genocide prevention in a wide range of formats.
The Pomegranate Foundation has three initiatives:
POMEGRANATE FILM PROJECT This
project supports a major film focusing on the years leading
up to a genocide -- the so-called "pre-genocide" period.
POMEGRANATE LECTURE SERIES The
lecture series features academics who are studying the
causes of genocide, comparative genocide and genocide
prevention.
POMEGRANATE SEED FUND The seed fund supports new filmmakers and other artists
who are exploring themes of genocide, deportation, ethnic
cleansing and other human rights atrocities in a wide range
of media, including new media. It also supports artists from
groups which have been affected by genocide.
