The Aegis Trust is an international non-governmental organization working to prevent genocide and mass atrocities from happening again. Aegis honors the memory of the victims of genocide and enables students, professionals, decision-makers and the wider public to meet survivors and learn from their experiences. Through education, we work to build sustainable peace by encouraging communities to change from mindsets of mistrust and prejudice to a position of shared responsibility for peace and stability. In Rwanda, we work with teachers, parents, students, youth, researchers and decision-makers by training and supporting them in peace and values education for sustainable peace.
