Rwanda Women Empowerment Activities: Learn, Serve, and Immerse

“We cannot claim to be on a sustainable path to transform Rwanda if we exclude women, who are more than half of the population.” – HE President Paul Kagame, 2003.

 

Paving the way for Empowered Women: Today, Rwanda is a case study for resilience and empowerment, especially for women. Rwandan society historically marginalized women, and despite the genocide in 1994 that claimed almost one-third of the Rwandan population, the country has seen exceptional strides in empowering women and sustaining environments.

 

Since then, it has evolved into a revered country that uplifts, empowers, and supports women through community, socio-economic development, and supportive NGOs. Rwandan leadership has helped to amplify gender equality, narrow the gender gap to the highest level of admiration, and become globally revered as the most pro-woman country in the world.

Participants on this heartfelt Learn, Serve, and Immerse 10-day journey to Rwanda in May or Summer of 2023 will have an opportunity to experience these organizations that empower women, learn about initiatives and activities for women's empowerment, and have a cultural experience in Kigali, the capital of Rwanda

 

There will also be experiences to get a glimpse of Rwanda’s past through emotional visits to sites dedicated to the 1994 Genocide and take in the stunning natural views of the Nyungwe Forest and remote regions of Rwanda, experience life, culture, and art in these spaces–from drumming troupes to tea planting–and a safari ride. 

 

​From urban to rural, this ultimate Rwanda transformative experience will give travelers who visit Rwanda a deeper understanding of how the Land of the Thousand Hills has become a global leader in empowering women economically and politically. Through this cultural immersion, they can witness how Rwanda women empowerment groups provide a higher level of education, health care, and standard of living for themselves and their dependents.
