MBWIRANDUMVA BACKGROUND
MBWIRANDUMVA INITIATIVE means in English ʺSPEAK I’M LISTENING”, this association was created in 1996 with the aim to assist genocide survivors, widows and orphans, with their psychosocial needs. It started with an encounter that the founder Mrs. Beatrice Karamaga had with a young mother and genocide survivor who wanted to abandon her child with Beatrice as she became pregnant after having being raped by the INTERAHAMWE militia. The child was a constant reminder of her humiliation and she was unable to raise the child since she was poor. This encounter convinced Beatrice that she had to take action to help her and other women with similar problems.
