Participation in the Genocide ConventionThe list of parties to the Genocide Convention encompasses the states who have signed and ratified or acceded to the international agreement to prevent and punish actions of genocide in war and in peacetime.
On 11 December 1948, the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide was opened for signature. Ethiopia became the first state to deposit the treaty on 1 July 1949. The treaty came into force and closed for signature on 12 January 1951. Since then, states that did not sign the treaty can now only accede to it. The instrument of ratification, accession, or succession is deposited with the Secretary-General of the United Nations
As of 2008, 140 states have ratified or acceded to the treaty, most recently Montenegro on 23 October 2006. A further single state, the Dominican Republic has signed but not ratified the treaty.
