ABSTRACT
This chapter provides numerous suggestions as to how organizations could possibly strengthen their efforts in regard to the issues of intervention and prevention of genocide. The proliferation of organizations has been associated with considerable diversification. Some organizations, such as the scientific and professional ones, are highly specialized in terms of their objectives or of their constituencies. Most significantly, the Institute is working on the development of a genocide early warning system. A good deal of the information presented is based on an open-ended questionnaire that the author sent to over 70 organizations that are working on the issues of human rights, refugee problems, the plight of indigenous peoples, ethnocide, and/or genocide. In the early 1980s, Human Rights Internet identified close to 2,000 nongovernmental organizations working on various issues vis-a-vis the protection of international human rights.
