The core aim of the study is to understand young men’s and women’s aspirations regarding their future in social, economic and other dimensions of life. @EKayitesi @MiniYouthRwanda @MastercardFdn@PASGR_
Right now in #Kigali: we are holding a validation workshop of the research findings on youth aspirations, resilience and adaptation in #Rwanda, conducted by IPAR-RWANDA in collaboration with @PASGR funded by @MastercardFdn@EKayitesi
In her opening remarks, @EKayitesi said that this project is so important for #Rwanda, as 65.3% of the total population are under 30 years according to the 5th Population and Housing Census 2022. @MiniYouthRwanda @MastercardFdn
This study is centered on the principle that we can't solve the problems of young people without their ideas. This research provided an oportunity to hear the voice of the youth on their aspirations, resilience and adaptation to various circumstances, @RemAyede from @PASGR_
