Youth Literacy Organisation

We run workshops and build platforms to inspire people to be (more) literate and make lifelong learning a serious goal. Since 2009.

Reflecting on the role of literacy and lifelong learning, in ensuring sustainable growth, on this International #LiteracyDay; bearing in mind that one out of five people in the world still can't read and write. But we're here for more progress and encouraging all literacy actors.

#Literacy is critical to economic development as well as individual and #community well-being. Helping someone to read and write effectively or acquire the basic #skills, improves the #future of everyone in #society.

We wish you all a Happy Literacy Month! #Rwanda #GiraIgitabo

Always read with understanding, even when the writer is trying to confuse your intellect.

Learn. Grow. Act.

Je suis heureux de vous annoncer que mon roman "Petit Pays" est maintenant disponible en Kinyarwanda sous le titre "Gahugu Gato" (et bientôt en Kirundi).

My novel "Small Country" is now available in Kinyarwanda.

These are great stories and campaigns. One thing we haven’t done is to incorporate #writing (and storytelling) across the curriculum. Many Rwandans write very poorly simply because it’s not thoroughly taught in schools and elsewhere. It’s 2018 — let’s do this, @MinisterRw_Edu! https://t.co/txXn9pjISt
