Learning About the Genocide Against the Tutsi

Education plays a critical role in preventing genocide and combating hatred.

Ibuka Canada is committed to promoting education about the 1994 Genocide Against the Tutsi in Rwanda and supporting initiatives that help communities understand the causes, consequences, and warning signs of genocide.

The genocide claimed the lives of more than one million people in just 100 days in 1994. Learning about this history is essential to ensuring that future generations understand the dangers of hatred, discrimination, and extremist ideology.
