About

Sunday 5th November
The National Holocaust Centre and Museum
Free

Inspirational speaker Marc Gwamaka will be joining The National Holocaust Centre and Museum from The Kigali Genocide Memorial, which is a collaboration between Rwandan authorities and the Aegis Trust for Genocide Prevention, born from The National Holocaust Centre and Museum.

As a teenager, he dedicated his life to helping others break the cycles of hatred. He founded the Peace and Love Proclaimer, a youth movement aimed at mobilizing young people to construct pathways of humanity, and the Walk to Remember, an educational program that has been used to instruct young people from around the world about genocide, its consequences, and how to prevent its recurrence.

The Kigali Genocide Memorial opened in 2004, the Memorial became the starting-point for peace and values education now built into Rwanda's national schools curriculum. Strengthening community resilience against division, it is ripe for adaptation and use internationally.
"If peace can be built after the Genocide against the Tutsi, it can be built anywhere."
