Bosnian Muslim Survivor Almedina Dautbašić-Memišević | Women’s History Month | USC Shoah Foundation

Bosnian Muslim genocide survivor, Almedina Dautbašić-Memišević, was born in Ljubovija, Yugoslavia in 1982. Almedina was interviewed in Tuzla, Bosnia and Herzegovina in 2021. Please enable closed captioning for English translation.

In 2022, USC Shoah Foundation integrated testimonies of survivors and witnesses of the 1992-1995 war in Bosnia-Herzegovina, with a particular emphasis on the 1995 genocide in Srebrenica. The integration is the result of the Institute’s partnership with the Srebrenica Memorial Center.

USC Shoah Foundation’s Visual History Archive currently contains 20 testimonies of survivors and witnesses of the war and the 1995 Srebrenica genocide in Bosnia-Herzegovina. The testimonies had been recorded by the Srebrenica Memorial Center in collaboration with Balkan Investigative Research Network (BIRN) in 2020 and 2021 in several towns and cities in Bosnia. The collection contains 8 testimonies by male and 12 testimonies by female interviewees. The testimonies were recorded following the oral history methodology and they cover the prewar, wartime, and postwar periods. All testimonies are in Bosnian.
