Today, we visited the two Menstrual Hygiene Management rooms established in Bugesera District through our initiative with the support of our partners. These rooms currently serve over 800 students, 37 teachers, and the neighboring community.
During the visit, we supplied essential materials for daily use and held discussions on potential projects to ensure the long-term sustainability of the facilities. Our goal is to build additional rooms to address the existing gap and contribute to the fight against period poverty.
We would also like to thank @brdbank , @ling_pads and friends of Our Past who made this possible.

We hosted H.E. Abdullah Kh. Almusabeeh, President of @badeabank , for a high-level meeting to deepen the longstanding cooperation between the two institutions and advance their shared commitment to sustainable development financing.
The meeting culminated in the signing of a new USD 25 million financing facility that will strengthen BRD’s capacity to finance projects that support sustainable development and job creation- including exports and manufacturing, affordable housing, and women-led enterprises- in line with Rwanda’s Vision 2050 and the National Strategy for Transformation (NST2).
On the sidelines of the @africaceoforum_acf , we have officially signed an investment agreement with the African Local Currency Bond Fund (ALCB Fund), managed by Cygnum Capital Group Ltd, and reopened its second Sustainability-Linked Bond issuance in Rwandan francs.
This partnership marks an important step in attracting international investors into Rwanda’s capital markets and increasing long-term funding in local currency.
The investment will support key sectors that contribute to Rwanda’s development, including affordable housing, business growth, job creation, and enterprises that create positive impact in communities.
We thank Cygnum Capital Group Ltd, ALCB, and TCX for their partnership and trust in Rwanda’s growth journey.
This milestone reflects growing confidence in Rwanda’s sustainable finance market and the country’s long-term development vision.
