In building genocide memorials, Rwanda is refusing to let go unrecognized the victims of genocide, the Country is tirelessly committed to rebuild and restore the remnants of the 1994Tutsi's genocide.

Ten genocide memorials have been sampled to explore the community perceptions and understandings of Rwanda Genocide memorials. Those symbols communicate a nonviolent message that assist Rwandans to improve their social fabrics, on the other side, they communicate a violent message that complex the community cohesion,they are multifaceted symbols.
