editor's note
Dr Joseph
What holds a society together is rarely what appears on stage. Beneath speeches and rituals, it is the fragile choices of ordinary people that make peace durable and justice possible. Young people asking how accountability can be real, survivors carrying memory forward, neighbors stitching trust in markets, schools, and local councils, these are not background details. They are the ground on which governance and peace must stand.
Igitekerezo Hub was created to hold these realities with care and attention. It is not a decorative space for commentary but a living practice where ideas are sharpened by experience, and small, overlooked acts of courage are recorded before they fade. What may appear provisional, a question in a youth forum, a hesitation in dialogue, a quiet act of defiance, a memory recalled in passing, can carry the weight of accountability and become evidence for action.
