Young leader & professionals of EAC, our generation must rise to support & work alongside elders in the regional integration journey. Join @platform435 & become part of a united voice of young leaders & professionals. Together with our Elders,we shall build one strong EAC.

The digital economy is becoming East Africa’s new gold mine. Youth participation is rapidly growing in Kenya, Rwanda, & Uganda through content creation, & online trade. If the EAC invests in it, technology, digital infrastructure, & innovation, regional trade will expanded.

Only 19 Days to go to Africa's biggest Youth Gathering of the Year! #YouLeadSummit2026 The 9th edition is under the theme; Breaking Barriers, Building the Future: Youth Advancing Sustainable Development through Peace, Justice & Green Transition. Taking place from the 25th to 29th May 2026. See you in Arusha Tanzania!

@jumuiya Fill out this Google Form and connect, collaborate, and lead impact across borders. Your voice matters. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI….

This is a valuable opportunity for cross-border collaboration; however, the apparent lack of deliberate positioning of young people as active drivers is concerning. Without structured youth involvement, the future impact may be constrained.

Ready to shape the future of @jumuiya ? Young leaders & professionals across East Africa are invited to join a growing network of changemakers.👇

What role should young professionals play in the East African Community today

Integration without young professionals is just a conversation, not progress. Time to move from words to action in the East African Community. #EastAfrica #YouthVoices

Nigeria cannot function without regular, credible elections, but introducing or strengthening the use of referendums for key national decisions could deepen democracy and reduce political tension.

But government of @GovernmentZA should do something. every country is on tension.

@Eakc_kiswahili @ncasiimwe @easteco1 @jumuiya Yes there is progress, but what deliberate measures are being taken to ensure young professionals, under the @platform435 , actively participate in these processes, considering their central role in developing & applying AI technologies across the region today & in the future?

Today, the ES, @ncasiimwe, participated in the validation meeting for the EAC AI Strategy(2026-2031). Language must be recognized as strategic infrastructure. Further, emphasis must be placed on Kiswahili, which is increasingly gaining global prominence. @easteco1 @jumuiya

@CyrilRamaphosa Mr President, Africa Month reminds us we are one people. Yet incidents affecting Ghanaians trouble this vision. A house divided cannot stand. What concrete steps will you take to guarantee safety, respect, & true African solidarity for all nationals within South Africa today?

Dear Fellow South African,   Every May, we observe Africa Month to commemorate the founding of the Organisation of African Unity in 1963. Celebrating and affirming our identity as Africans is as integral to our national character as the ideals that anchor our democracy. 🔗 shorturl.at/3NYGb

@mfa_tanzania As @platform435 , we urge to President @PaulKagame & @SuluhuSamia to align discussions with the @jumuiya agenda. We pray for solutions tackling youth unemployment through regional trade, skills development, & innovation, building a stronger, united economy for future generations.

The President of the Republic of Rwanda, H.E. Paul Kagame, has arrived in Dar es Salaam for a one-day working visit to strengthen bilateral relations between the two countries. At the Julius Nyerere International Airport in Dar Es Salaam H.E. President Kagame was received by the Minister for Foreign Affairs and East African Cooperation Ambassador Mahmoud Thabit Kombo and other government senior officials. H.E. Kagame is expected to meet with his host, the President of the United Republic of Tanzania, H.E. Dr. Samia Suluhu Hassan, at the State House in Dar es Salaam. The visit is expected to reinforce the strong and historic ties between the two neighboring countries. This cooperation has continued to grow in recent years through the Joint Permanent Commission (JPC), with Tanzania remaining among Rwanda’s top three global trading partners. Trade between the two countries has been increasing annually. In terms of investment, from 1990 to March 2026, Tanzania has registered 42 investment projects from Rwanda valued at USD 325.53 million, creating 2,225 jobs across various sectors, including manufacturing, transport, financial services, natural resources, and tourism.
