TRAUMA HEALING AND PEACEBUILDING SEMINAR

March 29, 2023

More than a quarter of a century after the genocide against the Tutsi in 1994, “the memory of this highly traumatic event and the various tragedies associated with it continue to haunt Rwandans who have been affected directly and indirectly by the genocide. Massive emotions of fear, anger, sadness and depression are increasing, and there is a need of dealing with this issue so that people can heal from this painful past and build a peaceful future.

In connection that, the Faculty of Theology and Religious Studies (FTRS) at PIASS organized 3 days (22-24/03/2023) seminar on Trauma Healing and Peacebuilding for all students and staff of this Faculty. The seminar was facilitated by Mrs. Jane Snaith (the Chairperson of Family for Each Child/Igale Lapsele Pere in Estonia), and Dr. Muke Nagaju (the Dean of the FTRS)
