Best news to start the weekend! 🎉

Under the @URSwedenProgram, Minister of Youth and Arts Jean Nepo Utumatwishima adds to #Rwanda's growing critical mass of PhD holders following his successful doctoral defense at Gothenburg University, #Sweden.

Originally a medical doctor, Dr Utumatwishima, PhD examined how household dynamics influence child #stunting and proposed holistic, multisectoral solutions that go beyond nutrition-based interventions.

We commend his resilience and hard work despite a demanding cabinet schedule, and extend our appreciation to the #Undernutrition Subprogram team and supervisors for their support throughout this journey.
