Drawing on the local experiences, knowledge, and wisdom of Rwandan youth can make them agents of healing from the genocide against the Tutsi in ways that are culturally appropriate, relevant, and meaningful. This qualitative study aimed to develop an emerging framework for intervening with youth that is centered in the experiences and cultural context of the Rwandan youth post-genocide. Drawing on Grounded Action research of post-genocide community-led healing practices with a group of 23 high school students, results indicated that “psychological healing” in post-genocide Rwanda may require different approaches than the dominant Western healing models. For research participants, “healing” meant “kongera kwiyubaka” (building ourselves again after the genocide), requiring “kwigira” (self-reliance) and “gusasa inzobe” (openness to share what is in their hearts). This study recommends that scholars, policy makers, and funders reimagine existing models of healing in post-genocide Rwanda and support local initiatives drawing on wisdom from lived experiences.

Kongera Kwiyubaka(再次重建自己):种族灭绝后卢旺达的文化响应和背景相关的集体康复
借鉴卢旺达青年的当地经验、知识和智慧,可以使他们以文化上适当、相关和有意义的方式从针对图西族的种族灭绝中恢复过来。这项定性研究旨在开发一个新兴框架来干预青年,该框架以种族灭绝后卢旺达青年的经历和文化背景为中心。借鉴 Grounded Action 对 23 名高中生进行的种族灭绝后社区主导的康复实践的研究,结果表明,在种族灭绝后的卢旺达,“心理治疗”可能需要与占主导地位的西方治疗模式不同的方法。对于研究参与者来说,“治愈”意味着“ kongera kwiyubaka”(种族灭绝后重建自己),需要“ kwigira”(自力更生)和“ gusasa inzobe”(敞开心扉分享心中所想)。本研究建议学者、政策制定者和资助者重新构想种族灭绝后卢旺达的现有治疗模式,并支持当地从生活经验中汲取智慧的举措。
