AVEGA Agahozo is one of the key partners of Survivors Fund (SURF). It represents and supports widows of the genocide, and their dependents. As Marceline, an AVEGA member, testifies: “If it hadn’t been for AVEGA, I don’t think I would be alive today.”

Moral Courage is “the willingness to speak truth to power and risk backlash for a greater good.” There are a number of survivors that I meet during the course of my work, that have great moral courage. The President of SURF’s partner IBUKA, the umbrella body of survivor’s organisation in Rwanda, is amongst them.
Thank you
