A Holocaust survivor and students at the Holocaust Centre in Nottinghamshire engaged in discussion with students and a Rwandan genocide survivor at the Kigali Genocide Memorial in Rwanda, through a live video-conferencing link. This was the first time that live video-conferencing of this kind has ever been set up between Rwanda and the UK – and now it is available for you to view in it’s entirety.

Students at the UK end were able to ask face to face about the Rwandan survivor’s experience, and students in Rwanda were be able to ask Martin face to face about his experience in the Holocaust.
