Rwanda marked thirty years since the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi with a national commemoration ceremony that brought together survivors, government officials and foreign dignitaries.
President Paul Kagame used the occasion to renew Rwanda’s commitment to community reconciliation, announcing a new national healing programme providing psychosocial support to genocide survivors.
The United Nations Secretary-General called Rwanda’s reconciliation journey an extraordinary achievement and a model for post-conflict societies.
Human rights organisations, while acknowledging Rwanda’s economic transformation, called for greater space for political dissent and press freedom.
