On March 27, the @RwandaBtS team hosted a Dialogue Gala Night celebrating creatives, collaboration, and shared achievements. Grateful to our CAG members and youth researchers for their invaluable contributions. @ICRWAfrica @ICRW @rubagiza @DUwiz

Uganda’s Social Protection system remains fragmented, underfunded, and limited in reach. In 2022, only 6.2% of the population received at least one SP benefit, while 21.9% of Ugandans were living on less than $1 a day. The country spends 0.15% of GDP on social protection a tenth of the regional benchmark. These are the numbers behind the human stories ICRW documented. New research on what Ugandan women and policy stakeholders say needs to change and why. #SocialProtection #Uganda #DataForChange #PovertyReduction #GenderEquality #ICRW #Development

From the start to the finish of #TourDuRwanda2026 you did a great job! Thank you, @rigogaruth and @TityKayishema for your dedication and powerful on field reporting. Your professionalism truly made a difference. @rbarwanda

You have inspired many young girls in media to believe in themselves and pursue their dreams with confidence. Thank you so much @GMukamabano for being such a powerful and positive role model We wish you continued success, prosperity, and fulfillment in your new journey

It was great moment as @RwandaBtS share the outcomes and findings of the research. Through their facial expressions, you could see their deep commitment to advancing gender equity and building a resilient, equitable& inclusive creative sector in Rwanda @rubagiza @DUwiz @ICRW

Where women are included, progress becomes possible. Where women are supported, creativity flourishes. Where women are valued, society grows stronger. Let’s build a resilient, equitable, and inclusive creative sector in Rwanda. Big thanks to @RwandaBtS for valuing her work.

Yesterday, @RwandaBtS held a workshop bringing together policymakers, practitioners, civil society, and key stakeholders to share project findings and discuss how to build a more resilient, equitable, and inclusive creative sector in Rwanda. @ICRWAfrica @ICRWAdvisors

Happy Heroes Day. We are safe because of their courage, sacrifice, and unwavering love for our country. Their legacy continues to guide us as we work together for unity, peace, and Rwanda’s development. Theme: “Heroism and Unity for Rwanda’s Development” @RwandaInChina

Rwanda’s Defence Attaché to China, Col Janvier Mujaribu, reflected on the enduring legacy of Rwanda’s heroes, highlighting the selfless sacrifices made, often at a young age, by those who set aside their studies and personal comfort to confront genocide ideology. He underscored the responsibility of the current generation to carry this legacy forward as the nation continues its journey of reconstruction and development. #Ubutwari2026

Today, it was a great honor to have an interview with Amb. @JKimonyo in #Beijing. He strongly emphasized the importance of respecting and honoring Rwanda’s National Heroes, highlighting the theme “Heroism and Unity for Rwanda’s Development.” Don’t miss tuning in to @RADIOSALUS1

Ambasaderi w'u Rwanda mu Bushinwa, James Kimonyo yasabye urubyiruko guharanira gukora ibikorwa by’ubutwari no guhesha ishema u Rwanda. Yabigarutseho ubwo Abanyarwanda baba mu Bushinwa, mu mujyi wa Beijing, bizihizaga Umunsi w’Intwari z'u Rwanda. @RwandaInChina #Ubutwari2026

Online visibility shouldn’t come at the cost of safety yet for many women, it still does. New findings show that 74% of online censorship or harassment incidents target content by or about women. For female creatives, this often means facing body-shaming, trolling, and coordinated abuse simply for showing up online. The impact goes beyond the moment: many women respond by scaling back their social media presence or self-censoring their work, limiting voices, creativity, and economic opportunity in digital spaces. At ICRW, we know that gender-based online abuse is not just a tech issue it’s a gender equality issue. Creating safer, more inclusive digital platforms is essential if women are to participate fully, freely, and without fear. #GenderEquality #OnlineSafety #DigitalRights #WomenInMedia #EndOnlineAbuse #ICRW

Financial inclusion initiatives, including access to microfinance, cooperative savings mechanisms, and government-backed credit programs that do not require collateral, significantly enhance women’s economic empowerment. These interventions enable women to start and sustain businesses, strengthen financial resilience, and engage more consistently in income-generating activities, while also reducing poverty, indebtedness, and economic dependence #socialprotection
