The Kigali Genocide Memorial in Kigali, Rwanda stands as a poignant tribute to the victims of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi. Inaugurated on the genocide's 10th anniversary, this memorial at Gisozi honors the 250,000 lives lost and educates on the atrocities of the 20th century genocides.
The ongoing project, the Wall of Names, commemorates the deceased, with many names still awaiting documentation. The memorial gardens offer a serene space for reflection on the genocide's history, urging us all to take personal responsibility in preventing discrimination and mass atrocities.

Founded by the legendary Dian Fossey, the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund is the worlds largest and longest-running organization dedicated to gorilla conservation. Its work combines daily protection and study of individual gorillas with people-centered programs aimed at training the next generation of African conservationists and addressing the basic needs of the people who share the gorillas forest home through food and water security, livelihood, and education programs.
