THE VISION
Image by © Paul Seawright
... IS A RWANDAN WORD THAT DESCRIBES
THE AFRICAN TRADITION OF HEALING, OF MENDING
TOGETHER THAT WHICH IS BROKEN.
​
The vision of the Ubwungo peace and reconciliation center is to collect and exhibit Rwandas positive stories of post-genocide reconciliation, and to promote ways of solidarity and hope for future generations.
​
The mission of the Center is to serve communities by supporting their journey towards healing, forgiveness and peace building. UPRC will promote stories of solidarity and hope for future generations by collecting and exhibiting Rwandans’ positive stories of post-genocide reconciliation.
It will serve as a platform for researchers and local community members to work together and will be a pioneering space of learning and knowledge exchange on the post-genocide journey of Rwanda.
The center will advance a narrative of healing and hope and will facilitate innovative and community-based research that furthers development and reconciliation in Rwanda and other communities.
