“Kwibuka carries profound meaning for our nation. It is how we confront and overcome the divisions that nearly destroyed us. This day empowers us all.

We draw on the strength of survivors, who provide the reservoir of humanity that feeds our nation’s soul. To all survivors, know that you are not alone. We stand with you always.

Everything we have achieved, was only possible, because all Rwandans decided to join hands in common purpose. We honour the role played by every Rwandan, in our country’s rebirth.” President Kagame | #Kwibuka32

Yesterday, just before schools closed for the holidays, we visited a school to give the gift of feminine hygiene kits to girls ensuring they leave for the break with dignity and care.
But this impact doesn’t end in December. The ripples will continue for months and years to come.
