I’ll always love moments that remind us that protecting our planet is not someone else’s responsibility. It belongs to all of us 🥳 Today, I joined an amazing climate action in Nzahaha, Rusizi District, to launch Rwanda Climate Month 2026! This activity is being conducted in partnership with @ARCOSNetwork , @LCOYRWANDA26, local government authorities, and other partners. Bringing together young people, farmers, local leaders, and environmental champions Planting 2,500 trees today across 5 hectares is a beautiful step towards protecting our environment. And those trees we planted today? I hope that one day, they will stand tall, protect our land, and remind us of the day we chose to do something rather than just talk about it. The future is in our hands, and today, we put a little more hope into the ground. #RwandaClimateMonth2026 #LCOYRwanda2026

Today MANUMETAL and @ARCOSNetwork visited agroforestry farmers in Rulindo District to boost wood value addition. When smallholders earn more from their timber, rural incomes grow and Rwanda’s ecosystems stay protected.

Today, I joined the community in Gasabo District, Rutunga Sector, Kigabiro Cell, Rukerereza Village for Umuganda. Together, we gathered in recognition of World Water Day, International Day of Forests, and World Meteorological Day important moments that remind us how much we depend on nature every single day. One of the main activities was tree planting. As I placed a young tree into the soil, It reminded me that every tree we plant is a promise to protect our land, to preserve our water, and to leave something better for the next generation. Planting trees should not be seen as a one-day ! It is something each of us should take part in, wherever we are. Because when we plant a tree, we are growing hope, protecting life, and investing in our future. #Umuganda #PlantATree

Meet the top winners of the Water Modeling Hackathon 2026, young innovators who stood out for developing cutting-edge solutions to Rwanda’s water challenges. The Water Modeling category focused on hydrological modeling of the Nyagisozi sub-catchment and flood hazard assessment downstream using HEC-HMS and HEC-RAS, while the Erosion Control category challenged participants to extract radical terraces from satellite images or orthophotos using R or Python. The winners walked away with a cash prize of RWF 1,000,000, while runners-up each received RWF 750,000 in recognition of their outstanding performance.
