The Problem

In 1994, I lost my entire immediate and most of my extended family to Tutsi Genocide in my home country of Rwanda. The project is motivated by my commitment to prevent future genocide from happening again in Rwanda and around the world, as well as to improve the living conditions for Rwandans in the post-genocide community.

Plan of Action

"Jacqueline’s Human Rights Corner" was conceived in April 2007 as a Miracle Corners of the World Partner Initiative. Since, I have made much progress accomplishing my goals, reaching thousands of people internationally through my presentations. Construction on a community center has also started in Rwanda and a team of young Rwandans has been trained to lead daily activities in the center once it is finished. The center will greatly impact Rwandans, both those who work at the center and those who benefit from its services.
