Healing in Rwanda: Dealing with Legacies of the 1994 Genocide, presentation by Emmanuel Habimana

TD-W 1701 University of California Santa Barbara, Santa Barbara, United States

After the 1994 genocide Rwanda had the highest proportion of orphans in the world. Emmanuel, one of those orphans himself, was among the people who stepped up to help raise child survivors and integrate them into a new, post-genocidal society, where they must share their communities with former killers.
