Today’s R&D covers genocide prevention.  This year marks the twenty-year anniversary of the Rwandan genocide of 1994 and yesterday the United Nations offered an apology for not doing more to stop it.  As ethnic violence continues to plague parts of the world today, international actors are openly discussing what steps can be taken to prevent future genocides.
