On 4 November 2025, parliamentarians, diplomats, academics and genocide survivors gathered in Westminster Hall to mark 125 years since the birth of Raphael Lemkin – the Polish-Jewish jurist whose single-minded advocacy gave the world both the word genocide and the 1948 UN Convention on its prevention and punishment.

Hosted jointly by the All-Party Parliamentary Groups (APPGs) for Armenia and for Genocide Prevention, and organised by the Aegis Trust with the Armenian National Committee UK, the event “Raphael Lemkin: A Pioneer of International Justice” explored the enduring power of Lemkin’s ideas and the urgent relevance of his legacy today.
