Consignment - The Rwandan Genocide 

Magnum Photographers 

The Rwandan genocide in 1994 resulted in over a 800,000 deaths and over hundreds of thousands of refugees fleeing to exile in neighbouring countries. This selection of images focuses on the genocide, the refugee camps, the children and adult prisoners accused of the genocide and some of the aid work in the region today.
