Rev Dr Rob Craig discusses his Rwandan experience

Presbyterian Moderator Dr. Rob Craig has spoken of the “positive dimension coming out of Rwanda” in an audio diary and studio discussion broadcast on BBC Northern Ireland’s Sunday Sequence programme on Sunday, 8th September.

Dr. Craig, who has just returned from two weeks in Rwanda visiting Christian Aid and Tearfund development programmes, told the programme’s presenter William Crawley, “I think the positive thing is to understand how Rwanda as a country has within a relatively short space of time been seeking to build a new society and a new community.

“It is fascinating to see how they have tried to cope with issues of justice, remembering, victims and perpetrators while restoring relationships.”

Listen to Dr. Craig’s studio discussion with Presbyterian minister Rev. Dr. Lesley Carroll and Northern Ireland’s Commissioner for Victims and Survivors Kathryn Stone, both also recent visitors to Rwanda.
