Amahoro Amani DVD
1 February 2008
If you would like to see the highlights of the first two years of the Amahoro Amani project, you can purchase a DVD produced thanks to funding from the Comite Catholique contre la Faim et pour le Developpement (Catholic Committee against Hunger and for Development).
The eight-minute film, which will be broadcast on national TV in Burundi, Rwanda and DRC, examines the nature and objectives of the project and shows young people participating in actions in the name of peace.
The DVD is available in English and French. You can get your own copy by emailing amahoro.amani@yahoo.fr
You can view the short feature about the project on YouTube.
The Amahoro Amani project was set up to engage several thousand young people in combating ethnic prejudice and to inspire them to make a real contribution to social change in the Great Lakes Region of Africa. It has involved seven Guide and Scout Associations in Burundi, Democratic Republic of Congo and Rwanda.
Guides and Scouts have been carrying out many practical activities including setting up peace and reconciliation clubs for young people from different ethnic backgrounds and organizing peace and reconciliation days. The project has been supported by WAGGGS and WOSM.
