“In the communities where we work, we have seen firsthand what becomes possible when we invest in the potential of youth. When we equip them with the right skills, factor in climate adaptation, provide access to finance, and surround them with community support, we do more than change livelihoods, we change lives.” – @PlanRwandaCD #GreenSkills4Youth

“Positive parenting is a key approach to enhancing intergenerational relationships and ensuring the best possible development for children. The way we raise our children shapes not only their future, but the future of our country. Together, let us raise our children with kindness, love, care, support, and hope. To our children here today and across the nation: we see you, we hear you, and we are here with you and for you.” Remarks by @PlanRwandaCD on behalf of @Rwanda_Child partners. #DAC2025
