Edited by Regine Uwibereyeho King, Masengesho Kamuzinzi & Simon Gasibirege.

This book represents one of Africa (Rwanda)'s unique contributions to peace building and will transform how we think about healing from trauma. With insightful stories of deep wisdom, tenacity and conviction toward the restoration of human souls, this book is for anybody working in communities that are wounded by vicious mass violence and trauma. The authors present a transformative process that allows communities and individuals impacted by trauma to “heal together” – a model where both victims and perpetrators sit together to reimagine their future through dialogue that includes storytelling, grieving, forgiveness and reconciliation.
