Our Keynote took place on Tuesday Evening, November 14th at the Fordham University Lincoln Center Campus

Joseph Sebarenzi: former head of the Rwanda Parliament, has endured tragedy most of us cannot fathom. He lost both his parents, seven siblings, and numerous other relatives in the Rwandan genocide of 1994. Yet, years later, as a senior government official in a position to exact revenge, he instead pushed for peace and reconciliation. "Revenge is like adding guilt to victim hood." says Sebarenzi. "It solves nothing. At some point, we have to ignore the past and envision the future."

Rwandan Ambassador to the UN: H.E. Prof. Joseph Nsengimana: Ambassador Nsengimana has been the Permanent Representative of Rwanda to the United Nations since 13 June 2006. In this capacity he oversees all issues of interest to Rwanda at the UN. He also follows several issues closely in the Security Council. Prior to this appointment, Ambassador Nsengimana was a Special Advisor to the President of Rwanda, and served as a Cabinet Minister for six years.
