| When Rwandan women came together to help rescue their country after genocide, they created a model for sustainable peace and security worldwide. In the spring of 1994, the tiny African nation of Rwanda was ripped apart by a rampage that left nearly a million dead. After the violence subsided, Rwanda's women carved out unlikely new roles for themselves as visionary pioneers creating stability and reconciliation in genocide’s wake. In Rwandan Women Rising, Swanee Hunt weaves together interviews with more than 90 women - heralded activists and unsung heroes alike - who overcame unfathomable brutality, unrecoverable loss, and unending challenges to rebuild Rwandan society. Their stories, told in their own words, demonstrate that the best way to reduce suffering and to prevent and end conflicts is to elevate the status of women throughout the world. | |
