I’m delighted to share that on May 14, 2026, I officially graduated during the 9th Graduation Ceremony of @RwandaPolytec from the Department of Veterinary Technology, specializing in Animal Health. This journey started in 2023 when I was admitted to @Huye_College in the Advanced Diploma program in Animal Health. It has not been an easy journey, but through dedication, perseverance, hard work, and determination, I was able to reach this important milestone. Throughout my studies, I gained both theoretical knowledge and practical skills that strengthened my passion for animal health and livestock production. My final year research focused on “Prevalence of Gastrointestinal Worms in Dairy Cattle distributed by RDDP in Huye District.” This study deepened my understanding of the challenges affecting cattle health and reinforced my commitment to contributing to improved animal welfare and productivity in the livestock sector. This achievement would not have been possible without the support, guidance, and encouragement of many people. I would like to sincerely thank my lecturers, supervisors, classmates, friends, and family for standing by me throughout this journey. Your support played a key role in shaping my success. Graduating in Animal Health is not just a personal achievement, but also a responsibility to continue serving communities by promoting animal health, livestock development, and sustainable agriculture. As I step into the next chapter of my career, I am excited for the opportunities ahead to make a meaningful impact in the veterinary and animal health field.

#TEKANA, Building Confidence, Resilience, and Prosperity Among Rwanda’s Farmers Across Rwanda’s Western Province, a common message emerged from farmers, livestock keepers, local leaders, and agricultural stakeholders: agricultural insurance is no longer a luxury, it is a necessity. Through the Government’s National Agricultural Insurance Scheme (NAIS), popularly known as “Tekana Urishingiwe Muhinzi Mworozi,” thousands of farmers and livestock keepers are gaining protection against the growing risks posed by climate change, natural disasters, and livestock diseases. In districts such as Rusizi District, Nyamasheke District, Rutsiro District, and Karongi District, awareness campaigns brought together farmers, livestock keepers, insurance providers, and agricultural officials to discuss how insurance is transforming agriculture from a risky venture into a secure investment. The impact is already visible. Rice farmers who once lost entire harvests to floods, livestock keepers who feared devastating losses from disease outbreaks, fish farmers affected by changing water conditions, and greenhouse farmers exposed to strong winds now have a safety net that allows them to recover and continue investing in production. Stories shared during the campaigns illustrated the program’s value. A fish farming cooperative in Rusizi recalled losing 10,000 fish fingerlings before joining the insurance scheme. A rice cooperative in Nyamasheke received compensation after drought damaged several hectares of crops. In Rutsiro, potato farmers recovered from drought-related losses thanks to insurance payouts, while a greenhouse farmer in Karongi who previously lost crops worth millions of francs due to storm damage now farms with confidence. Dairy farmer Josiane Nyiramisago testified that insurance enabled her to quickly replace a cow worth RWF 800,000 after receiving compensation from her insurer. These experiences demonstrate the core purpose of TEKANA: ensuring that a single disaster does not wipe out years of investment and hard work. The Government of Rwanda continues to support farmers by subsidizing 40% of insurance premiums, while farmers contribute the remaining 60%, making insurance more accessible to rural communities. The scheme currently covers major crops such as rice, maize, beans, soybeans, cassava, potatoes, chili peppers, and greenhouse production, as well as livestock including cattle, pigs, poultry, and fish. The results are encouraging. Since the program’s launch in 2019, more than 200,000 farmers and livestock keepers participate annually. Over RWF 17 billion has been mobilized through insurance premiums, including Government support, while nearly RWF 9 billion has already been paid in compensation to affected farmers. Nationwide, more than 50,000 cattle, 15,000 pigs, 400,000 poultry birds, and over 32,000 hectares of farmland have been insured. District performance figures further highlight the growing trust in the program. Several districts have exceeded their annual targets for insuring crops and livestock, demonstrating that farmers increasingly recognize insurance as a critical tool for protecting their livelihoods. As Rwanda advances the implementation of the National Strategy for Transformation (NST2) and the Fifth Strategic Plan for Agriculture Transformation (PSTA5), TEKANA is helping build a more resilient, productive, and commercially oriented agricultural sector. The future of agriculture is not about farming and hoping for good luck, it is about farming with preparation, protection, and confidence. Through TEKANA, Rwanda’s farmers and livestock keepers are not only safeguarding their investments but also securing a stronger and more sustainable future for themselves, their families, and the nation. #TekanaUrishingiweMuhinziMworozi Cc; @MutangwaSarah @RwandaFinance @RwandaLocalGov @JosephMuseruka @CentralBankRw @InsuResilience @Radiant_rw @SONARWAGI @OldMutual_Rw @bkinsuranceltd @SahaAyandev @HITIMANAJean
