This short film made by Rwandan youth tells the story of two people—a survivor & a former perpetrator—who are forging a way toward peace. It was produced with support from @aegistrust.bsky.social during our Healing Our Communities collaboration, 2016-19. 2/2

Funding disruptions have not stopped our community partners in Nigeria, who've been building their outreach teams' peacebuilding capacity through advanced dialogue training & practice.
