International Day of the Victims of Enforced Disappearances

August 30 marks the International Day of the Victims of Enforced Disappearances. This global observance serves to honor individuals who have disappeared due to violence, provide support to their families, and commemorate the lives and legacies of the victims.

In the Dominican Republic, the date is utilized as an opportunity to reflect on the life and professional trajectory of Dr. Manuel Antonio T. The commemoration emphasizes the importance of remembering those lost to enforced disappearances while acknowledging the ongoing impact on their families and society.
