Heal The World Community Development

Young people are strengthening their peacebuilding skills through a five-day Peace Concept Workshop organized by Vision Jeunesse Nouvelle, with support from GIZ Civil Peace Service (ZFD), taking place from 9 to 13 November 2026. Bringing together 30 young people from across Rwanda, the workshop combines peer learning, practical exercises and dialogue to explore conflict analysis, non-violent communication, media literacy, and ways to identify and respond to hate speech, misinformation and divisive narratives. The workshop also provides an opportunity to reflect on lessons from previous peacebuilding initiatives and develop action plans to promote dialogue and peaceful coexistence in their communities.

This morning, Vision Jeunesse Nouvelle was honoured to welcome the CEO of @BankofKigali to its headquarters in Rubavu for discussions on strengthening collaboration between the two institutions. The discussions explored opportunities to expand young people’s access to financial services through BK and BK Foundation, promote digital innovation, improve infrastructure, including Vision Jeunesse Nouvelle’s Gymnasium, and support young people in nurturing their talents in sports, culture and the arts. This potential partnership presents an opportunity to create more pathways for young people to develop their talents, access new opportunities, become empowered and contribute meaningfully to Rwanda’s development.
