The costs are around 29 million Austrian Shillings. The participants are the so-calles "new" repatriates, Tutsis, but also Hutus, who had to leave the country during the genocide in 1994.A large advantage of this project is its interdisciplinarity. The life in the whole region and the co-operation between the different ethnic groups can be stimulated positively by the integrated type of the implementation. The investigation did not result in any overreaching of a certain ethnic group.
