Executive Council at World Liberty Congress
Carine Kanimba is a resilient survivor of Rwanda's 1994 genocide and the daughter of Paul Rusesabagina, who saved 1,200 lives in his hotel during the conflict - a story later immortalized in the film Hotel Rwanda.
After her father's abduction and unjust imprisonment in Rwanda in 2020, she, along with her family, led the #FreeRusesabagina campaign, securing his release in 2023 after 2.5 years as a political prisoner.
Targeted by Pegasus spyware, she exposed Rwandas surveillance of her and testified in 2021 before the U.S. Congress and the European Parliament.
She continues to advocate for regulation of the spyware industry and accountability for abuses against activists and journalists.
