Rwanda: 'Speaking Helps Us Heal' Says Rwandan Survivor On Genocide Anniversary

On April 7, 2026, Rwanda began its annual commemoration of the 1994 genocide against the Tutsis. Survivor Godelieve Mukasarasi, who founded the non-profit Sevota, has helped over 1,000 women and children affected by sexual violence. In her book _La Réparatrice_, co-written with French journalist Capucine Graby, she discusses the importance of restoring dignity and memory for the victims.
