“AMA Y NO OLVIDA – Museum of Memory against Impunity” was built with the purpose of contributing to dignify the victims of state violence in Nicaragua as of April 2018, and to honor their memory. The museum disputes the official narrative that criminalizes citizens who participated in civic protests and opposes the climate of impunity fostered by the Nicaraguan government. In the museum there are portraits of the victims, as well as information and accounts of the events, photos, audiovisual materials and various documents that allow us to dimension the context of social protest.

AMA Y NO OLVIDA was created with a participatory approach in which the members of the Asociación Madres de Abril (AMA) have assumed an active role in the gathering of information, as well as in designing and presenting the museum. This initiative is supported by the Nicaraguan Center for Human Rights (CENIDH), the Nicaraguan Academy of Sciences (ACN) and many individual citizens committed to the search for truth and justice. This museum is the contribution of AMA to the defense of human rights and the reestablishment of the rule of law through the active construction of the memory of their relatives.
