Yolande Mukagasana and the friends of the memory of the genocide perpetrated against the Tutsi launched a foundation known as the Fondation Yolande Mukagasana this Monday, the foundation will has three objectives, among other things to;

  • Fight against denial and revisionism of the genocide against the Tutsi;
  • Fight against the ideology of genocide and promote any art that will have the same objective whether in writing, music, theater or cinema;
  • Conduct research on the Genocide against the Tutsi in collaboration with relevant organizations through organizing conferences and seminars on the genocide against the Tutsi, archiving the history of the genocide and promoting the culture of reading and writing about the Genocide against Tutsi.

Speaking on the objective of this foundation, Yolande Mukagasana President and founding member said that,”The ideology and the denial of the genocide perpetrated against the Tutsi is still topical, especially in journalistic and academic sectors influenced by the perpetrators of the genocide and their friends. With the evolution of the media that gave birth to social media which give an easy audience to the most weird statements in the name of freedom of expression. As keepers of memory, we cannot accept the distortion of the history of Rwanda and of the genocide in particular”.

The Foundation was founded by different people, both Rwandans and foreigners of all categories in age, education, skills and experiences with different backgrounds. The majority being the young people who want to rebuild Rwanda, and build on our differences. The reason why this Foundation will not only be limited to the fight genocide against the Tutsi, and will denounce wherever there is a risk of genocide.

“We must know that our differences do not make us enemies, but the riches on which we must all rebuild together. The genocide perpetrated against the Tutsi is the history of Rwandans, it is the history of humanity. To fight against the ideology and denial of genocide is to fight against hate. Hence, it’s everyone’s duty to get involved in this fight “added Yolande Mukagasana

The Foundation Yolande Mukagasana Foundation is open to anyone, to any institution, both national and international, sharing the same vision.
