Peace in Rwanda

Rosette Sebasoni of @KarunaCenter presents some of the programme achievements for the 2nd year ending in July ‘018: 16 communities have dialogue clubs & youth clubs gathering regularly to discuss & overcome issues and carry out community projects that benefit vulnerable families.

“They also discuss remaining challenges in order to find participatory solutions for their communities.” Mutanguha

“This dialogue forum is a series of listening sessions where both members of communities and policy makers share success stories related to reconciliation and social cohesion.” @FreddyMutanguha

This dialogue is organised under Healing Our Communities Program, implemented by @KarunaCenter @Aegis_Trust @IRDP_Rwanda &HROC to promote social cohesion in #Rwanda through #peacebuilding dialogues & activities

The @Aegis_Trust Regional Director @FreddyMutanguha officially opens the 2nd National listening session with a theme: “Learning from Grassroots Communities about Opportunities for Strengthening Social Cohesion in today’s Rwanda”
