SIT Study Abroad: Rwanda: Post-Genocide Restoration

On Rwanda: Post-Genocide Restoration and Peacebuilding, examine the 1994 genocide against the Tutsis in Rwanda and efforts to foster peace, unity, and reconciliation. Travel to northern Uganda to study collective strategies of remembrance.

In 1994, Rwanda was the site of a devastating genocide in which more than 1 million people were killed in 100 days. Today, the country provides an excellent case study on reconciliation and peacebuilding. In Kigali, the sprawling capital city, you will study the root causes and impacts of the genocide.

Next, travel to Uganda to learn about the Lords Resistance Army conflict and the country's own reconciliation process. You will visit genocide memorials, a refugee settlement, and healing programs for survivors and victims of displacement. You will also visit Murchison Falls National Park.
