'From the frying pan into the fire': a case study of Rwandan refugees
Article Abstract:
An analysis of the history of the Rwandan refugee crisis suggests that the First World is largely to blame for it. Financial aids to Rwanda by First World countries have only slighty helped the refugees because these aids were given in such a way that the givers are more benefited than Rwanda. Moreover, international non-governmental organizations strived to help Rwandan refugees, but their efforts were not enough due to inadequate funds.
