In its ongoing efforts to support the government of Rwanda in strengthening memorial infrastructure and ensuring the preservation of historical records, Liquid Intelligence Technologies has donated $100 000 (RWF131 million) to the Imbuto Foundation. This tranche, the company says, marks an ongoing commitment to honouring the memory of the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi.
According to the company, the annual contribution to the Imbuto Foundation, established by the first lady of Rwanda, Jeannette Kagame, forms part of the company’s $1 million ten-year pledge, made in collaboration with the foundation and the Ministry of National Unity and Civic Engagement.
The funds help to ensure that the East African country’s national-level genocide memorials receive the necessary technology to preserve evidence and artifacts for future generations, while also supporting documentation and research efforts. This helps both Rwandans and visitors to engage with an authentic record of the country’s past, noted Liquid.
Alongside this long-term memorialisation initiative, Liquid is also committed to Rwanda’s vision of inclusive digital transformation, providing free public Internet access to various locations across the country.
“Protecting the memory of the genocide against the Tutsi is essential to our nation’s collective healing and resilience. Beyond our role in building Africa’s digital future, we take pride in partnering with communities in ways that safeguard their heritage and strengthen their identity,” said Sam Nkusi, executive chairman of Liquid Intelligent Technologies Rwanda.
