By Stanis Bujakera and Fiston Mahamba, Reuters
Inquiry: How might the downing of the helicopter impact the conflict in the eastern Congo? Might this conflict and the Ukraine conflict turn into another Rwanda/former Yugoslavia issue for the United Nations?
Activity: Examine evidence from the Rwandan genocide and the former Yugoslavians genocide and compare them to the situations going on in Ukraine and eastern Congo. Create a "T-chart" for comparison. Conduct an issue analysis of the two situations to clarify the two situations and determine how the UN and the World could proceed.. Review the stages of a Genocide to determine if the situations of these conflicts will dissolve into genocide. Create a spatial journal to determine impacts on surrounding areas. Create a story map to communicate the results.
