In the City of Buenos Aires, there are emblematic places that invite reflection and reaffirm the commitment to human rights. One of them is the Memory and Human Rights Space, which houses the Haroldo Conti Cultural Center, dedicated to exhibitions and artistic activities related to memory and human rights.
The Government of the City of Buenos Aires promotes proposals to value democracy and respect for human rights. Participating in these activities and visiting these spaces helps keep historical memory alive, reflect on the recent past, and strengthen the commitment to democracy in Argentina.
Among the most symbolic places for reflection are the Memory and Human Rights Space (formerly ESMA), which operated as a clandestine detention center during the dictatorship. Also, the Plaza de Mayo, in front of the Casa Rosada, which today houses museums and organizations dedicated to the promotion of human rights.
Additionally, the Memory Park is a tribute to the victims of state terrorism and an emblematic place of collective memory where the Mothers and Grandmothers of Plaza de Mayo carry out their rounds demanding justice. The Haroldo Conti Cultural Center, located within the Memory and Human Rights Space, offers exhibitions and workshops related to memory and human rights.
During Memory Week and on March 24, National Day of Memory for Truth and Justice in Argentina, various educational and cultural activities are held to remember the victims of the last military dictatorship that took place from 1976 to 1983. Reflection and commitment to human rights are fundamental in building a more just and respectful society.
