James Kearney conducted a seminar on 'Re-forging Rwanda’s Identity: The Case of the Rwandan Government’s Ingando Camps'
“Kearney’s ethnographic research within Ingando explores the ways in which young people respond to the new history and hours of military training in the name of peace and unity….Ingando is considered unique in its explicit and clear mobilization of education towards an equally explicit vision of reconciliation through national unity – as Kearney shows, the effects of this unique strategy are less clear and straightforward” (Julia Paulson – editor of Education and Reconciliation: Exploring Conflict and Post-Conflict Situations, 2011, Continuum International Publishing Group)
