SIT Study Abroad: Rwanda: Peace & Conflict Studies
Rwanda offers a unique opportunity to study ethnic conflicts and genocide, from causation to transformation and prevention. In less than 100 days in 1994, more than 1 million people were slaughtered by their neighbors and, in some cases, their own relatives. Nearly three decades later, the political, economic, and social effects of genocide are still felt, but survivors and perpetrators of the genocide now live side by side.
During the program, visit genocide memorials to learn about the history of conflict in Rwanda and examine post-genocide reconciliation and development efforts underway. You also discover what facilitates and hinders the success of these efforts and consider how the case of Rwanda can inform an understanding of conflict/genocide and peace-building processes elsewhere.
