Details

Claver Irakoze survived the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda as an 11-year-old boy. Today, he is a peace education activist, singer, songwriter, and author. This talk will explore his personal reflections on how Rwanda has navigated the painful journey of survival, national recovery, and reconciliation, and will invite the audience to see history as a “living memory” that people carry, transmit, and struggle with across generations.
