Ms. KIMURA Makiko, Senior Representative of JICA Rwanda and its team participated in the Busasamana Community Action Planning Workshop, which is a part of the program implementing with IOM and MINEMA for dissaster risk management. Through open and constructive discussions, participants identified key challenges, mapped existing community assets, and explored practical solutions to strengthen their communities. At the conclusion of the workshop, participants expressed their gratitude for the opportunity to engage in this three-day process. Many noted that the workshop helped them recognize the strengths and potential that already exist within their community and reinforced their belief that, with support from MINEMA and partners, they can drive positive change themselves. @IOMRwanda @RwandaEmergency

Three years in as Director General of @UNmigration, one truth stands out: migration is always about people. I’m so proud of our teams serving on the frontlines, and deeply grateful to our Member States, donors, and partners for working alongside us.

One leaflet. One minibus. Dozens of passengers heading home. At bus parks on Rwanda's borders, @IOMRwanda is giving travelers Kinyarwanda leaflets, made with @RBCRwanda, on the signs of Ebola. Facts travel faster than fear.
