Rwanda, historias de un futuro

Abstract

En este trabajo de fin de grado se presenta un documental realizado en Rwanda durante un voluntariado organizado por la universidad. El objetivo es enseñar los avances en dos áreas fundamentales para el desarrollo del país: la salud y la educación. En la primera parte el documental se centra en el sistema sanitario de Rwanda, la grabación tubo lugar en el hospital de Nemba, donde los voluntarios de la UMH realizan sus actividades. El enfoque dado en esta primera parte es sobre su funcionamiento en cuanto al uso de drones para transportar las transfusiones de sangre. La segunda parte del documental se centra en el ámbito educativo, con un enfoque en un colegio local, el colegio situado en la localidad de Apeki Tumba. A través de diversos alumnos que nos enseñan las instalaciones se crea una especie de recorrido por todo el colegio. Mediante entrevistas con un toque más personal los alumnos ofrecen una visión propia sobre sus ambiciones y el contexto del país. A través de este proyecto se pretende no solo informar sino también inspirar a otros alumnos de la universidad a realizar el programa de voluntariado y abarcar una perspectiva a más cercana sobre el funcionamiento del país.

In this final degree project, a documentary filmed in Rwanda, a small country located in Southern Africa, is presented. It was created during a volunteer program organized by the university. The goal is to showcase the progress in two fundamental areas for the country's development: health and education. In the first part, the documentary focuses on Rwanda's healthcare system. The filming took place at Nemba Hospital, where UMH volunteers carry out their activities. This section emphasizes how the hospital operates, particularly in the use of drones to transport blood transfusions. Through footage captured at the hospital, context is provided for the location, and interviews with healthcare staff, accompanied by voiceover narration, create the narrative thread of the story. The second part of the documentary centers on education, focusing on a local school, Apeki Tumba School. Through various students who guide us through the facilities, a sort of tour of the entire school is created. Personal interviews with the students offer their perspectives on their ambitions and the context of the country. Given that Rwanda was the victim of a massive genocide 30 years ago, the students share their opinions on the country's progress since then. This documentary not only combines the use of images but also involves the entire production process, including recording, editing, and post-production. In conclusion, the documentary provides an overview of healthcare and education from an evolutionary perspective on the country's situation over the past 30 years. Through this project, the aim is not only to inform but also to inspire other university students to participate in the volunteer program and gain a closer understanding of how the country operates.
