- President Kagame has officially announced that he will stand for re-election in 2024, at the request of the people. The population rejoices and rejects any criticism in this regard. In our assessment, this decision makes perfect sense for security and continuity reasons. No other candidate is apparent who would be able to peacefully take over the scepter.
- Economically and socially, the pace of the country's development remains high. Not a month goes by without a major project either being launched or completed. This quarter in Rwanda, a $400 million methane gas power plant on Lake Kivu was connected to the national grid. This is another step toward cheaper, diversified energy sources.
- A new, state-of-the-art training facility for surgeons in minimally invasive high-tech surgery has also been opened, using a variety of advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics in treatment. The goal here is to train talent on the African continent.
- Nyungwe National Park in Southern and Western Province has been officially declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO's World Heritage Committee. This inscription is an important step in ensuring its long-term conservation, preserving its natural heritage for future generations and promoting sustainable development of neighboring communities.
- More than 300 coaching sessions were held this quarter. The demand for individual coaching is very high.
- A new seminar on Financial Values & Costing was introduced as part of a locally funded "Investment Readiness Program" for women entrepreneurs.
