Kingston University Tamil Society held the first ‘Breaking the Silence’ event of 2014 earlier this month.

Tamil students from the university organised an exhibition at the main campus of the university in south London detailing aspects of the genocide and war crimes that occurred during the armed conflict.

Award-winning documentary “No Fire Zone” was also played to students and faculty members at the university.

Breaking the Silence is a project to raise awareness about Tamil rights issues, organised by Tamil student societies in universities across London, for over 5 years.

We need your support

Sri Lanka is one of the most dangerous places in the world to be a journalist. Tamil journalists are particularly at threat, with at least 41 media workers known to have been killed by the Sri Lankan state or its paramilitaries during and after the armed conflict.

Despite the risks, our team on the ground remain committed to providing detailed and accurate reporting of developments in the Tamil homeland, across the island and around the world, as well as providing expert analysis and insight from the Tamil point of view

We need your support in keeping our journalism going. Support our work today.
