Alma Mustafić

Alma Mustafić is an educational scientist and lecturer-researcher in the ‘Access to Justice’ research group at Utrecht University of Applied Sciences. She teaches about the Srebrenica genocide, which she survived in 1995. Her father, who worked for Dutchbat, was killed. Holding the Dutch state accountable, she won her case before the Supreme Court in 2013. Mustafić’s work focuses on human rights education and genocide awareness, combining teaching, research, and the arts. With Boy Jonkergouw, she co-created the theater production Dangerous Names, exploring the perspectives of both survivors and Dutchbat veterans. In recognition of her societal impact, she was named Freedom Ambassador in 2023 and Utrecht’s first Human Rights Ambassador in 2024. This year, she is working on a large-scale multimedia project titled The Eleven Voices of Srebrenica, marking 30 years since the genocide.
