On #WorldEnvironmentDay, minority groups, families, community members and local authorities, joined hands to plant trees in Bugesera.
Together, we are not only greening our communities but also challenging stigma and stereotypes through collective action and inclusion.

Today marks the 32nd commemoration of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi.
A stark reminder to learn from the past and to act with respect, humanity, and unity.
We stand in solidarity with the Rwandan people and honor the victims of this immense tragedy.

Women's rights and gender equality are important issues for me. As a minister, as a human being, and as the father of two daughters.
#InternationalWomensDay is a day to reflect. But not to be silent. That is why I spoke with three inspiring women: Mekka, Alma, and Linda. 1/2
