Yad Vashem hosts eight-day seminar for Tutsi survivors of Rwandan atrocity
By Amiram Barkat
Yad Vashem, the Holocaust Martyrs and Heros Remembrance Authority hosted this week for the first time a delegation from the Tutsi tribe, survivors of the genocide in Rwanda, for an eight-day seminar.
The Yad Vashem staff leading the seminar said they were amazed at the identification of the survivors of the Tutsi genocide with the Holocaust despite the differences in time, place and content. The seminar was devoted to the formation of memory and the return to life, and included meetings with Israeli Holocaust survivors.
