KARONGI: New Genocide Memorial Center Built in Rubengera sector

World Vision has donated up to Rwf30 million to Karongi district to build a new mass grave for 1994 Tutsi genocide victims, it is reported. 

This came to life after Rubengera memorial centre was destroyed because of rain water and old age.

After the donation, a foundation stone was laid on June 14th 2012 and construction is taking place near the old mass grave of the genocide victims in Rubengera sector.

Old Rubengera memorial had no marked sign that it’s a genocide memorial but the one being built will have a name and other features that mark genocide memorial centers in Rwanda.
