The Aegis Trust is collaborating with the University of Nottingham in the United Kingdom on a project to create a comprehensive map of Rwanda's genocide sites.
The database uses GPS technology to map all the genocide sites in Rwanda, matching them with photographs and testimonies from survivors, witnesses and perpetrators.
To date, over 1,000 sites have been identified in Kigali alone.
