Thirty years after a million people were slaughtered in less than three months in a genocide, there is a country where life expectancy has more than doubled, where a million people have been lifted out of poverty, where women are the majority in parliament, and where 98 per cent of the population has health insurance.

Rwanda is one of the leaders on the continent in education. With a near-universal primary school enrolment, a digital transformation with nationwide network coverage, and IT innovations in education, Rwanda has become a model for the continent in educational progress. Reconciliation is the starting point. The world considers this situation in the Middle East hopeless, impossible — but look at Rwanda. In 100 days, over a million members of the Tutsi minority group, as well as Twa and Hutu who and stood up against the genocide, had been murdered by Hutu militias. Author Philip Gourevitch pointed out:The dead of Rwanda accumulated at nearly three times the rate of Jewish dead during the Holocaust.
