Just now on #sundaywalkrwanda beautiful couple with their little child. On the other side, this shot reminds me that many of children in many different corners of the world are separated with their parents on the move to the refugee camps ... fleeing violence .... it also make me remember that Many Rwandans have never or partially enjoyed parents’ affection because of Genocide Against the Tutsi. Let’s everyone be everyone else’s peace. Let’s protect children and let’s not break their rights to live their life. #bethepeaceinitiative
walk the journey
You are more than welcome to join #BeThePeaceWalk, for minutes, hours, a day, week or for the entire #BeThePeaceWalk. We will be sharing stories, participating in activities of hope and resilience including planting fruit trees in gardens, visiting inspirational heroes who rescued Tutsi during genocide, listening to testimonies of survivors, testimonies of young generation who are doing great innovations… There will be days we will visit some families and spend their day life together by carrying out their everyday activities…
We are still searching for the remains of the victims of 1994 genocide against the Tutsi. Today in South of Rwanda -Mayunzwe. We are burying in dignity more than a thousand victims of the genocide. Hate was taught for generations and can only be overcome by transmitting love, truth and justice to all generations. #bethepeace
