In the spring of 1994, the tiny African nation of Rwanda was ripped apart by a genocide that left nearly a million dead. Neighbors attacked neighbors. Family members turned against their own. After the violence subsided, Rwanda's women—drawn by the necessity of protecting their families—carved out unlikely new roles for themselves as visionary pioneers creating stability and reconciliation in genocide's wake. Today, 64 percent of the seats in Rwanda's elected house of Parliament are held by women, a number unrivaled by any other nation. While news of the Rwandan genocide reached all corners of the globe, the nation's recovery and the key role of women are less well known. In Rwandan Women Rising, Swanee Hunt shares the stories of some seventy women—heralded activists and unsung heroes alike—who overcame unfathomable brutality, unrecoverable loss, and unending challenges to rebuild Rwandan society. Hunt, who has worked with women leaders in sixty countries for over two decades, points out that Rwandan women did not seek the limelight or set out to build a movement; rather, they organized around common problems such as health care, housing, and poverty to serve the greater good. Their victories were usually in groups and wide ranging, addressing issues such as rape, equality in marriage, female entrepreneurship, reproductive rights, education for girls, and mental health. These women's accomplishments provide important lessons for policy makers and activists who are working toward equality elsewhere in Africa and other postconflict societies. Their stories, told in their own words via interviews woven throughout the book, demonstrate that the best way to reduce suffering and to prevent and end conflicts is to elevate the status of women throughout the world.

Children need a safe, nurturing, healthy, and stimulating environment to thrive and reach their full potential. But millions of children living in poverty don't receive enough stimulation or good nutrition in their first years of life, and poverty also makes them more likely to experience neglect and violence in the home. Domestic violence, however, is rarely addressed in programs promoting young children's development, which also typically focus on mothers, with little attention on fathers. Previous research suggests home-based parenting programs can lead to positive improvements in children's brain development. Can these programs be adapted to address family violence as well Can these services be effectively delivered through government social safety net programs which often target poor, vulnerable families.

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to describe the experiences of Rwandan women and their lives after the 1994 Rwandan genocide. Their stories were told through the eyes of Sonia (pseudonym), the Rwandan interviewer, describing their living conditions, current challenges, social interactions, HIV/AIDS, psychological and physical conditions. The sample consisted of 86 interviewees, 5 men, 72 women, and 9 children. Interview transcripts were not recorded for children under 13. Total interviews recorded were 77. The average age of the interviewees is 40.3 years (ranged 14 to 61 years). The study found 46 (59%) of the interviewees reported being HIV/AIDS positive. Of the 46 interviewees with HIV/AIDS, 43 (93%) were women. Women reported suffering from trauma 15 (21%), living in poverty 18 (25%), challenges paying for school fees 14 (19%) and rent 18 (25%), suffered from malnutrition 17 (24%) and rape 13 (18%). Implications and recommendations for future research are discussed.
