The Outreach Programme on the Rwanda Genocide
and the United Nations.

"The only way to truly honour the memory of those who were killed in Rwanda is to ensure that such events never occur again."

—Secretary-General António Guterres
in his message for the 23nd commemoration
of the Rwanda genocide

The Outreach Programme on the Rwanda Genocide
and the United Nations is an information and educational outreach programme run by the United Nations Department of Public Information.

The programme was established by the General Assembly on 23 December 2005 (A/RES/60/225) to "mobilize civil society for Rwanda genocide victim remembrance and education in order to help prevent future acts of genocide". The programme's mandate was extended in December 2007 (A/RES/62/96), 2009 (A/RES/64/226), 2011 (A/RES/66/228), and 2013 (A/RES/68/129).

The programme focuses on learning the lessons of the Rwanda genocide in order to help prevent similar acts in the future, as well as raising awareness of the lasting impact of genocide on the survivors and the challenges that they still face today.

Secretary-General's Message for 2017

Today we remember all those who perished in the genocide in Rwanda 23 years ago.

More than 800,000 people were systematically murdered across the country – overwhelmingly Tutsi, along with moderate Hutu, Twa and others.

Today we also honour those who survived. We recognize their pain and courage, and the struggles they continue to face. The survivors' resilience and their capacity for reconciliation are an inspiration to us all.

The only way to truly honour the memory of those who were killed in Rwanda is to ensure that such events never occur again. Preventing genocide and other monstrous crimes is a shared responsibility and a core duty of the United Nations.

The world must always be alert to the warning signs of genocide, and act quickly and early against the threat.

History is filled with tragic chapters of hatred, inaction and indifference – a cycle that has led to violence, incarceration and death camps.

The past century alone showed, again and again, the poison of intolerance still loose in our societies.

Even today, minorities and other groups suffer attacks and exploitation based on who they are.

Let us learn the lessons of Rwanda and work together to build a future of dignity, tolerance and human rights for all.

António Guterres

Press Statement

Rex W. Tillerson
Secretary of State

Washington, DC

April 7, 2017

On this solemn day, the United States stands side-by-side with the Rwandan people in remembrance of the more than 800,000 men, women, and children killed in the 1994 Rwandan genocide. We bow our heads honoring those who suffered and the family members who each day keep their memories alive and close at heart.

The United States remains steadfast in our support for the Rwandan people as they work to overcome this dark period in their history, hold accountable the perpetrators of such heinous acts, and strengthen the fabric of their country in preventing a recurrence.

-“The root cause of the Rwandan tragedy of 1994 is the long and past historical ethnic dominance of one minority ethnic group to the other majority ethnic group. Ignoring this reality is giving a black cheque for the Rwandan people’s future and deepening resentment, hostility and hatred between the two groups.”

-« Ce dont j’ai le plus peur, c’est des gens qui croient que, du jour au lendemain, on peut prendre une société, lui tordre le cou et en faire une autre ».

-“The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish.”

-“I have loved justice and hated iniquity: therefore I die in exile.”

-“The price good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men.”
