The goal of this project is to share with the world the perspective of the children, to provide an opportunity to reflect on the tragedy of the genocide by observing life through the eyes of Rwanda’s children.

Today, the children’s work is traveling around the US and abroad in an exhibition that provides a unique look at Rwanda and at the lives of the children affected by the genocide, as they mature. It encourages the viewer to experience the life of a country that is in the process of rebuilding, of looking towards a hopeful future – through the eyes of children.
