Genocide Resource
This resource, as well as the wall mural and the set of posters that
accompany it, explores the topic of genocide in a number of contexts.
This resource has been written for a number of reasons - to record what
we did, to share our work and experiences with others, to highlight
the educational dimension of the 10th anniversary of the Rwandan genocide
and to mark its consequences for those who died as well as for those
who survived. 21 pages.
As
part of the support package for the Genocide project, a set of 3 posters
have been produced.
Poster 1 places the genocide in Rwanda in the historical
context of other genocides and killings and presents a summary of the
definition of genocide from the Genocide Convention.
Poster 2 illustrates the 8 stages of genocide with
images from different times and locations.
Poster 3 places events in Rwanda and Northern Ireland
side by side – we recognise that this is controversial and contestable.
The figures presented – 3,000 and 1 – represent the ratio
of deaths in the two places. How you interpret this equation is up to
you!
