@CBS__Rwanda welcomed visitors from the Netherlands Embassies in Kigali and Kampala to learn from the inspiring journey of a graduate sociotherapy group.

Since graduation, members continued meeting to strengthen cohesion, and engage in income-generating activities. With coaching and seed funding from the Connecting for Peace, they invested in welding machines, generating income that supports the group savings and loan scheme.

Mvura Nkuvure brought it back! 🎶
A song about reconnecting with Rwandan values: peace, unity, trust, care, connection, and living well together.
Through Mvura Nkuvure, these values find space to be practiced, strengthened, and shared again.
Happy weekend from CBS Rwanda!
The training continues in @RubavuDistrict , where local leaders are taking part in a five-day learning and exchange on approaches to strengthening community resilience.
Day 2 of the Local Leaders Training in @RwamaganaDistr , @RutsiroDistrict , @RuhangoDistrict and @Nyamasheke focused on the link between MHPSS, rehabilitation, reintegration and reconciliation, while strengthening trauma-informed and servant leadership approaches.

CBS Rwanda participated in a restorative justice workshop led by Prof.John Braithwaite, alongside participants from other organisations.
The session explored moving beyond punishment towards accountability, healing, dignity and rebuilding relationships.
