CPT visited the town of Minova and village of Kashenda for a third time and participated in a meeting with representatives of a newly formed nonviolence committee in Kashenda, as well as with representatives of the Bweremana Peace Committee, which included members from Minova.  Following the meeting, CPTers also met again with "Rebecca" a rape survivor who works tirelessly as wounded healer, assisting and advocating for other survivors of sexual violence.  She is connected to Synergie des Femmes pour les Victimes de Violences Sexuelles (SFVS) and brought the team her ledgers showing the incidents she had documented since the team's prior visit on 11 January 2009.  During that time, she had assisted forty new survivors of rape, aged eleven to over fifty-five.  She showed how she wrote in code to protect herself and the survivors.
