This is the talk for commemoration of 20 years ago in the horrible genocide of Tutsi on behalf of RYSO Today in rural Rwandan communities, people are proud that they have regained their hope in life. Rwandans have started to believe in themselves, yet still struggle to be self-reliant and maintain a sense of self-determination. This is a very long journey from the pervasive passive-mindedness of 20 years ago in the horrible genocide of Tutsi. Since 1994, Rwandans have dedicated their efforts into building themselves and their communities. The first step to rebuild the country was to establish healing and reconciliation, to unite Rwandans as one people, who respect all types of human dignity. So, now, who should help Rwanda to have people who are self-determined? Who should play this role to help the people of Rwanda to believe in themselves? Who will help Rwanda to drive its own development? I would strongly respond YES as Rwanda Youth Solution(RYSO) involves local people to change their own lives. The RYSO mission is community-led development, helping people to put their own ideas into action. Through RYSO , young graduates from universities work closely with communities and engage them in a facilitation process of 3 to 5 months to help them to choose, plan and implement a project. This is a very unique model for community-led development. Ryso involves the community in everything - ultimately increasing the sense of ownership and creating sustainable solutions in communities. As Rwandans, the positive future is in our hands, we should not be consumed by the sorrow of the genocide but rather think about how to rebuild our broken hearts.
