Kigali · Nairobi · Chicago
The month that keeps coming back.
I was born in Kigali, five days after the genocide began. This is where I gather what I've written since: on memory, migration, and the people quietly rebuilding what was broken. Some published, some not yet. All of it here.

Nadeige Uwamba was born in Kigali and grew up in Eswatini. She has worked in international development and human rights across two continents and is based in Chicago.
I'm at work on a memoir, April, about a single month that has shaped and reshaped my life. Until it's finished, this is where the rest of my writing lives. Reach me at hello@bynadeige.com.
