Project Overview
The Rwandan genocide is considered one of the “greatest tragedies of the 20th century”. After the Rwanda genocide, people have been slowly moving toward reconciliation and cooperation while still traumatized by the tragedy. The purpose of this project is to introduce Japanese-style UNDOKAI in the school curriculum in Rwanda in order to promote peace and to foster human resources who will lead the future. To achieve this purpose, the project establishes a model school that has the capability to organize UNDOKAI and whose teachers and students understand its significance.
