Abstract:
This article surveys the evolution of Rwandan family planning practices from the nation’s mythico-historical origins to the present. Rwanda is typically regarded as a patriarchal society in which Rwandan women have, throughout history, endured limited rights and opportunities. However, oral traditions narrated by twentieth-century Rwandan historians, storytellers and related experts, and interpreted by the scholars and missionaries who lived in Rwanda during the nation’s colonial period, suggest that gender norms in Rwanda were more complicated. Shifting practices related to family planning – particularly access to contraception, abortion, vasectomies and related strategies – are but one arena in which this becomes evident, suggesting that women’s roles within their families and communities could be more diverse than the historiography’s narrow focus on women as wives and mothers currently allows. Drawing upon a range of colonial-era oral traditions and interviews conducted with Rwandans since 2007, I argue that Rwandan women – while under significant social pressure to become wives and mothers throughout the nation’s past – did find ways to exert agency within and beyond these roles. I further maintain that understanding historical approaches to family planning in Rwanda is essential for informing present-day policy debates in Rwanda aimed at promoting gender equality, and in particular for ensuring women’s rights and access to adequate healthcare are being upheld.

Abstract:
Cette étude est une analyse du témoignage Génocidé de Révérien Rurangwa. Rurangwa est témoin survivant du génocide des Tutsi de 1994 au Rwanda. Son corps, marqué par la main criminelle, est complètement défiguré. Après plusieurs années, son corps porte encore les cicatrices visibles et invisibles du génocide. Génocidé est un portrait physique et psychologique du survivant Rurangwa. Cet article examine d’abord le rôle joué par la photographie dans la construction d’un récit dialogué qui crée l’écoute nécessaire pour libérer sa voix suffoquée. Ce mécanisme narratif lui permet de tenter de dire l’indicible. L’article analyse également la confiscation du corps du survivant : comment il a été ethnicisé, ciblé et ensuite marqué par le regard et le discours de l’autre qui en a fait un objet. Enfin, il montre comment l’image de la photographie de famille, plus précisément celle de la mère, joue un rôle important dans la récupération du corps par son propriétaire légitime et dans sa reconstruction identitaire.

Abstract:
The world is currently facing the fatal viral pandemic called coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), earlier named 2019-novel coronavirus (2019- nCoV). Every country of the world keeps responding to the challenges posed by covid-19 in all aspects of human endeavour with high demand and burden on health care. The report of the first case in Rwanda on 14th March 2020 was accompanied by actions to drive control measures by the government of Rwanda importantly to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Those measures included education on personal preventive behaviours, social distancing and restricting the movement of people locally, nationally and internationally resulting to lockdown that allowed only essential services. Lockdown has particularly affected Rwandan families with pregnant mothers in the context of childbirth preparation in different aspects. This review paper articulates the possible various dimensions of influence of the COVID-19 lockdown on birth preparedness by families and the possible maternal and neonatal health adverse outcomes that may be associated. This is with the intention of helping health care providers and other stakeholders anticipate, track and prepare for appropriate mitigation to reduce maternal-neonatal morbidity and mortality. French title: Implications du verrouillage de COVID-19 sur la préparation des enfants dans les familles RwandaisesLe monde est actuellement confronté à la pandémie virale mortelle appelée maladie à coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19), précédemment appelée 2019-nouveau coronavirus (2019-nCoV). Chaque pays du monde continue de répondre aux défis posés par le Covid-19 dans tous les aspects de l'activité humaine avec une forte demande et un fardeau sur les soins de santé. Le rapport du premier cas au Rwanda le 14e mars 2020 a été accompagné d'actions à conduire des mesures de contrôle par le gouvernement du Rwanda important pour prévenir la propagation de Covid-19. Ces mesures comprenaient une éducation sur les comportements personnels de prévention, la distanciation sociale et la restriction de la circulation des personnes aux niveaux local, national et international, entraînant un verrouillage qui n'autorisait que les services essentiels. Le verrouillage a particulièrement affecté les familles Rwandaises de mères enceintes dans le cadre de la préparation à l'accouchement sous différents aspects. Cet article de synthèse articule les différentes dimensions possibles de l'influence du verrouillage du COVID-19 sur la préparation à la naissance des familles et les éventuels effets indésirables sur la santé maternelle et néonatale qui peuvent être associés. Ceci dans le but d'aider les prestataires de soins de santé et les autres parties prenantes à anticiper, suivre et préparer des mesures d'atténuation appropriées pour réduire la morbidité et la mortalité materné-néonatales.

Abstract:
Diarrheal disease is the second leading cause of mortality and morbidity in children under 5 years old worldwide, and is the most common cause of malnutrition in sub-Saharan Africa. In Rwanda, diarrhea is the third leading cause of death in children under 5 years old. This study examined the association between sociodemographic factors and diarrhea in children under 5 years using the data of 7,474 households in the 2014-2015 Rwanda Demographic and Health Survey. Overall prevalence of diarrhea in this study was 12.7% in children. An increased risk for diarrhea was found for children aged 12-23 months (odds ratio (OR)=4.514), those with a low economic status (OR=1.64), those from the Western province (OR=1.439), those with poorly-educated mothers (OR=5.163), and those with families engaged in agricultural activities (OR=1.624). In conclusion, sociodemographic factors significantly affect the risk of developing diarrhea in children under 5 years in Rwanda. Designing and implementing health education promoting awareness of early interventions and rotavirus vaccination are essential to reduce diarrheal diseases for the Rwandan community.

Abstract:
Comment la morale serait-elle légitime après que l’histoire du xxe siècle a mis en cause le « progrès de l’humanité », le « sens de l’Histoire » et les « grands récits » qui les accompagnaient, après que l’organisation même des génocides, justifiée par des valeurs « morales » et des « raisons scientifiques », a altéré l’humanité même de l’homme ? Les romans de Gisèle Bienne et de Scholastique Mukasonga se situent hors de la morale instituée puisqu’ils affrontent l’expérience de l’inhumain. Les Paysages de l’insomnie de Marcel, revenu de la Première Guerre mondiale, sont hantés par les fantômes de ses camarades morts : il a perdu l’estime de soi et la capacité d’insérer ses actes dans la vie collective. Son expérience l’a séparé des siens : il reste « tenu au silence » face à celles qui restent du côté de la morale catholique et nationaliste. L’étrange solitude de Manfred Richter, ancien prisonnier nazi, et son silence, sont dépassés quand il transmet à Hélène, vingt ans, une leçon éthique contre l’ordre moral existant. Inyenzi ou les Cafards de Mukasonga aborde le génocide au Rwanda du point de vue d’une exilée tutsie dont la famille a été massacrée au nom de la morale chrétienne, républicaine et socialiste. La littérature, par son ironie, éclaire l’hypocrisie et la lâcheté. Notre-Dame du Nil va à la racine de la catastrophe : le mythe hamitique, inventé par les Européens, s’est transformé en cauchemar racial, orchestré par l’Église. La fiction ironique de Mukasonga est libératrice car elle s’oppose aux discours pesants des idéologies. Pour les personnages de ces quatre romans, l’Histoire n’est que mensonge, chaos, cruauté ; ils ne peuvent croire au sens de l’Histoire, mais la lucidité et l’ironie des romans donnent du sens à leur expérience humaine. De plus, les romans renouent les échanges sensibles entre les humains et avec le monde.

Abstract:
La présente thèse questionne la famille en lien avec des tueries de masse : le génocide des Tutsi du Rwanda. Le sujet a été développé sur deux grands axes. Un point d’histoire a présenté les déterminants socio-historiques qui ont favorisé l’extermination des Tutsi rwandais. Puis une analyse littéraire a établi une corrélation entre l’idée de famille et cette violence extrême, à travers un corpus d’écrivains francophones et de rescapés de cet événement. Ce qui a décloisonné l’étude du génocide contre les Tutsi au Rwanda du seul point de vue historique pour en faire un sujet littéraire. Dans ce travail de recherche, notre propos a insisté sur la situation des familles qui ont résisté et sur celles qui ont été décimées face au génocide ambiant. Et a informé sur une tragédie qui a fragilisé les liens de filiation au sein des membres d’un même ménage et rompue les alliances, la fraternité entre familles voisines. Cette étude a également souligné les configurations possibles de l’institution familiale après le génocide. Elle a montré qu’avec les massacres qui ont déstructuré les ménages, rompu les liens de filiations, les survivants pour amorcer une résilience, recomposent de nouvelles fratries, de nouvelles familles

Abstract:
Comment peut-on en arriver à vouloir exterminer une partie de ceux que l’on a connus, y compris ses plus proches ?À l’exemple significatif entre tous de cette femme dans le camp de réfugiés de Ravucindu « hutue mariée chez les tutsis » qui pose son enfant et part, « laissant là mourir de faim son fils, parce que son père, seulement, est tutsi » ; à l’exemple encore de ce prêtre de père hutu, aujourd’hui emprisonné à Muhanga, et qui torture sa mère tutsie tous les jours, jusqu’à ce qu’elle se suicide ; ou ce jeune milicien qui attaque à l’épée un stade où se sont réfugiés des milliers de personnes puis retrouve par terre la carte d’identité de son oncle maternel et se demande en haussant les épaules : « Est-ce moi qui l’ai tué, celui-là ? ». Comment est-il possible de rompre de façon aussi massive des liens qui semblent indestructibles ? Car qui peut honnêtement dire qu’il pourrait un jour oublier ses amis, sa mère, son frère ou sa famille ?L’objet de cette thèse est d’essayer de comprendre le mécanisme des ruptures de liens sociaux et familiaux et leur rôle dans le cas du génocide des Tutsis du Rwanda de 1994. Un génocide qui fit près d’un million de morts en cent jours et dont 60% des victimes auraient été tuées par des personnes qu’elles connaissaient là où elles habitaient.Dominé par le souci de chercher une explication qui ait quelque portée générale, ce travail propose, à partir de données empiriques obtenues presque exclusivement de première main (par plusieurs enquêtes successives de terrain au Rwanda, au Bénin et en Afrique du Sud entre 2014 et 2017 ), un cadre d’analyse des ruptures de liens sociaux et familiaux qui peuvent rendre possibles des massacres perpétrés dans la sphère intime au sein d’un projet d’extermination totale d’un groupe par un autre groupe.À la question : « Comment une telle rupture de liens sociaux et familiaux a-t-elle été possible ? », cette thèse répond en mettant en évidence l’importance cruciale d’un processus de double identification. Elle ne nie pour autant nullement le rôle des divers avantages (matériels ou symboliques) dont ont pu bénéficier les génocidaires par leurs crimes dans un tel contexte, mais montre que ces identifications-mêmes ont pu jouer un rôle dans ce calcul coûts/avantages
How can we reach the point where we exterminate some of those we have known, including our loved ones?Like the significant example of this hutu woman, married to a tutsi, from the refugees camp in Raducindu, who left her child lying on the floor, letting him to starve to death, only because his father is a tutsi ; such as that priest, born from a hutu father, and now jailed, who tortured daily his mother, a tutsi, until she committed suicide; or like this young militiaman who slaughtered a crowd with a sword in a stadium where thousands of people had taken refuge and then found on the ground the ID card of his uncle, had a look at it, shrugged his shoulders and wondered "did I kill this one?": how conceivable is this massive severing of ties which seemed otherwise indestructible? Who can expect he would be able one day to forget his friends, his mother, his brother or his family?This dissertation examines the mechanism leading to the collapse of social and family ties and its role in the case of the genocide against Tutsis in 1994 in Rwanda. Close to 1 million Rwandan Tutsis were exterminated over a period of 100 days. It is estimated that 60% of these victims were killed by people they knew.The present work tries to offer an explanation of some general scope by building an analytical apparatus based almost exclusively on empirical data gathered during field research in Rwanda, Benin, and South Africa between 2014 and 2017. This analytical apparatus examines how -within a crisis context - ties can break and lead to massacres in the intimate space of social and family relationships.To the question: "how can such destruction of social and family ties be possible ? ", this dissertation responds by highlighting the pivotal importance of a dual identification process. By doing so, it does not exclude the role played by the various advantages (material or symbolic) which benefited those who committed the genocide, but it demonstrates that these identifications themselves may have weighed strongly in this cost/benefit calculation

Abstract:
The aim of this paper is to explore how the Rwandan state has motivated its increased prioritization of family planning (FP). The paper seeks to understand whether the state’s increased promotion of FP is a result of Rwanda’s strong commitment to gender equality or part of a broader development agenda. By applying theories of substantive representation of women and smart economics, the paper investigates if the state considers enhancing women’s sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) as a goal in itself or as a means to reach their broader development goals. The method which has been selected is text analysis. The texts which are analyzed are government documents from the time of the emergence of the FP programme. The main findings of this paper suggest that the state’s main motive for the increased prioritization of FP is driven by the development agenda rather than a gender-sensitive approach. Nevertheless, there are statements in the texts which the paper connects to theories of substantive representation of women, however, the development rational corresponding with the idea of smart economics is more recurrent. The paper finds that the hypothesis building on the theory of smart economics finds the strongest support and therefore suggests that the Rwandan states consider FP to be a means to achieve broader development goals.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: The Rwandan government has set family planning (FP) as one of the goals and strategies to improve the health of the population. However, unmet needs for modern contraceptive methods are still a problem, as is the variance of modern contraceptive use among the five regions of Rwanda.   Aim: This study aimed at assessing key factors that contribute to the variance of modern contraceptive use between five regions of Rwanda. Methods: This study was a secondary analysis of the Rwanda Demographic health survey, 2010. A total of 492 clusters (urban/rural), composed by 12,792 households were selected in the survey; 13,790 women of reproductive age were systematically selected from selected households and interviewed about maternal and reproductive health issues. 6834 married women or living with their partners at the time of the survey were selected for this study. Results: Socio-economic and demographic characteristics of women, access to family planning (FP) information and women’s empowerment were associated with the variance of modern contraceptive use between the regions. Women’s empowerment was positively associated with modern contraceptive use in all regions. Access to information was associated with modern contraceptive use in all regions except in the North region (AOR: 1.24, 95%CI: O.8- 1.92). Conclusion: This study highlights that the variance of modern contraceptive use was associated to the way in which FP factors are associated with modern contraceptive use vary between regions and how different FP factors occur among regions. Further researches are needed to investigate potential factors on supply side that influence such variance.

Abstract:
The number of women participating in Rwandan politics has significantly grown since the second half of 1994 (after the civil war and Tutsi genocide). Gradually, especially in parliament where women now compose 63.8%, this has attracted the attention of scholars and the international community. While Rwandan government and the international writers document Rwanda’s relative progress on increasing and promoting women’s participation in politics, the majority of academic work to date has investigated women’s representative role and in most cases explored women in the legislature. Little or no academic work has focused on female politicians’ experiences of balancing their traditional female responsibilities and the public (male-stream) roles they are now taking on. Using semi-structured one-to-one interviews with female politicians in the cabinet, lower and upper chambers of parliament, local government and from women’s major groups (umbrella and networks), this dissertation examines the women’s narratives of their lived experiences of balancing their private and public roles, and what impact this has had on their lives and career paths. This thesis argues that despite the relevance of women’s access to political posts/work, failure to tackle gender inequalities in all areas of socialisation reshape and reinforce patriarchy in significant ways – especially due to increased time and work penalty that appear not only detrimental to women’s lives but also to the country’s social-economic development. Change in these circumstances seems to require a cultural shift, almost as large as the cultural shift that brought women into politics. This thesis also argues that women’s substantive representative role is better understood if the social-political contexts within which they live and work are considered. This study contributes new ways of understanding and theorising women’s political participation in Rwanda (and in similar contexts) to policy makers and activists.

Abstract:
In the 1994 Rwanda genocide, an estimated 800,000 people were brutally murdered in just thirteen weeks. This violence affected all Rwandans, but women experienced the genocide in very specific ways. They were frequently raped, tortured and physically mutilated. Yet, because of their sexual value, the number of women who survived the genocide far outweighed the number of men, leaving them largely responsible for rebuilding Rwandan society. While it may seem abhorrent to suggest that anything good could result from such tragedy, evidence from the women’s testimonies analysed for this research project suggests that this is a reality. Traditionally, the study of psychological trauma has been pervaded by an illness ideology with an emphasis on its pathological consequences. Throughout history and across cultures, however, the notion of positive changes resulting from human suffering has been recognised in literature and philosophy. Positive change following trauma, or posttraumatic growth, refers to the tendency of some individuals to establish new psychological constructs and build a new way of life that is experienced as superior to their previous one in important ways. Little research has been carried out on the concept of posttraumatic growth in other cultures and, to date, no research into posttraumatic growth has been carried out in Rwanda. However, empirical research in other contexts suggests that efforts to harness and promote posttraumatic growth may not only enhance health and well-being but also reduce future need for formal mental health services. Through a discursive analysis of Rwandan women survivors’ testimonies, this thesis reveals that, although there are countless tales of horror, pain and loss, there are also many stories about strength, recovery and growth. The thesis examines the impact of external factors, such as victimisation, stigmatisation and gender, which appear to encourage personal strength among these women, but have also gravely damaged their interpersonal relationships. It also examines the impact of the genocide on religious beliefs and demonstrates that individual interpretations of trauma within a religious framework can provide existential reassurance. However, because of Rwanda’s history of theocratic leadership, religious interpretations can also give spiritual credibility to ideologies which have a negative impact on group identity. The final part of the thesis examines processes of growth at the collective level, exploring the impact of the genocide on these women’s group identities both as survivors in Rwandan society and as Rwandans in an international society. It suggests that for growth to take place at the collective level, survivors require access to a platform from which they can develop counter ideologies and pursue their collective needs for agency on the one hand, and communion on the other. Drawing on the findings of this research, the concluding chapter offers culturally-informed advice to trauma practitioners, policy makers and non-governmental organisations as to how posttraumatic growth might be facilitated in the socio-political climate of Rwanda.

Résumé Au Rwanda, de nombreuses femmes se sont retrouvées mères d’enfants issus du viol qu’elles avaient subi pendant le génocide des Tutsis de 1994. Ces rescapées du génocide ont été torturées, violées et parfois laissées pour mortes par les génocidaires. Elles se sont retrouvées avec des enfants qu’elles n’avaient jamais désirés, alors que certaines d’entre elles étaient encore mineures, que d’autres venaient de perdre leur fiancé et que d’autres encore avaient perdu et leur mari et leurs enfants dans ce génocide. Le fait qu’elles aient gardé et élevé les enfants issus du viol leur a souvent valu d’être rejetées par leur famille et mal vues par la communauté. Les enfants considérés comme les enfants des bourreaux n’ont pas pu bénéficier d’une famille accueillante et aimante, ni du côté de la mère, ni de celui du père. Leurs mères n’ont pu bénéficier pour les élever ni d’un tissu familial et social affectif et soutenant, ni de l’aide financière octroyée pour les enfants rescapés. Nous sommes allée à leur rencontre pour voir ce qu’étaient devenues ces familles stigmatisées, précarisées affectivement et matériellement. L’objectif principal était de relever les fragilités et les ressources psychiques et relationnelles dont disposent ces familles, afin de dégager les moyens et les conditions d’un dispositif systémique susceptible d’aider les enfants nés du viol et leur mère à se relever et à se reconstruire. L’utilisation, dans cette étude, des outils de l’approche systémique ainsi que la démarche de la recherche-action ont permis l’expression des ressentis et l’instauration de groupes de parole pour les participants. Les résultats ont permis de confirmer l’atrocité du viol sur l’accueil maternel de l’enfant, de dégager la prépondérance du rôle de la mère sur celui des membres de la famille dans l’inscription filiative de l’enfant, et de mettre en évidence la nécessité de l’intervention sociétale pour l’édification d’une identité réhumanisante chez les mères ainsi que chez leurs enfants.
Abstract In Rwanda, many women found themselves mothers of children from the rape they suffered during the genocide against Tutsi of 1994. These genocide survivors were tortured, raped and sometimes left for dead by their perpetrators. They were left with children they had never desired, though some of them were yet minors, others had lost their boyfriends and still others had lost their husbands and children during this genocide. The fact that they kept and raised children born from the rape has often earned them rejection by their families and bad reputation by the community. The children considered as genocidors’children could not benefit from a caring and loving family, either on the side of the mother or the father. Their mothers were less and less integrated into the fabric of the family and society and did not benefit any financial support provided to genocides’survivor children. We set out to meet these mothers and their children in order to investigate what had become these stigmatized emotionally and physically weakened families. The main objective was to identify the fragilities as well as psychic and relational ressources of these families in order to determine the means and conditions of a systemic framework likely to help the children being born from rape and their mothers to recover and build. The use, in this study, of approach systemic’s tools and the action-research procedure enabled the expression of feelings and the establishment of dialogue groups for the participants. The results have confirmed the atrocity of rape on maternal care of the child. They allowed also to identify the predominant role of the mother over the one of family members in the filiative registration of the child, and to highlight the need for social intervention aimed at build a re-humanizing identity in mothers as well as in their children.
