Preparation of the remains for the burial of the dead.

It is a large task that needs to be done with great care, when you are to prepare the remains of approximately 50000 people. This is what is being done at the memorial in Bisesero.  A ceremonial memorial burial will take place at the end of June, this year, in order to have an official mass grave for the survivors to come to.

Preparation of approximately 50000 remains from the genocide in Rwanda 1994 is in progress at the Bisesero Memorial. The official burial of the dead will take place in late June 2014.
