It is very difficult to describe the horror caused by the crime of enforced disappearance, the uncertainty targeting the relatives of the disappeared caused by the agonizing waiting period following the disappearance that spans through years, and to reveal the truth of the absence of the disappeared as a situation far exceeding the figures and data.
This study was created by compiling the testimonies of relatives who told their stories as well as basic information about the disappeared. We want the database as a whole to be seen as one of the ways to keep the memory of enforced disappearance alive, to fight against impunity, and to spread the "Never Again" slogan in Turkey.
