A Memorial Symposium Honoring Floribert Chebeya Bahizire
12:00 PM - 02:00 PM
It was 20 years ago when the Endowment first encountered Floribert, and awarded a grant to the organization he led, La Voix des Sans Voix, in 1991 for $31,289.

In recognition of his unsurpassed contribution to the cause of democracy and human rights, the NED is proud to host this memorial symposium honoring the life and work of Floribert Chebeya Bahizire.
