Recalling the genocide instills in nations a deep feeling of responsibility to preserve peace and harmony. 

The horrors imposed upon mankind in Rwanda in 1994 remain open to both historical and modern generations thirty years later, making it an excellent starting point for learning from the greatest human tragedy. 

At the Ggolo Genocide memorial site in Mpigi District, hundreds of dignitaries led by the Rwandan High Commissioner in Uganda, the Rwandan community in Uganda, and the Diplomatic Corps have embraced the 30th commemoration of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi in order to reflect on the past mistakes that may have been avoided. 

At Ggolo, the remains of almost 4,000 people who perished in the ethnic massacres were buried.
Over a million Rwandans lost their lives as a result of the Tutsi Genocide in that country. The genocide was planned and carried out in plain front of the international community, which did nothing except watch it happen, according to Rwanda's High Commissioner to Uganda, Col. Joseph Rutabana. 

Huda Oleru Huda, minister of state for veteran affairs and defense, stated, "Remembering the violent history of our own and other countries concerns us all in the present and for the future, so we learn not to repeat the mistakes and crimes from the past, and so that genocide can never happen again."
