Child Participation

“I learnt all children have rights, such as a right to a good education. But with rights comes responsibilities, which we also need to follow." said Patrick Byiringiro (12 years).

Save the Children in partnership with National Commission for Children, gathered together children’s leaders in all Districts of Rwanda including Burera, Ngororero, and Gicumbi to ensure no child's idea is left behind.

To boost the supply and demand of quality Kinyarwanda children's books in schools, Save the Children's Mureke Dusome project organized a visit for the publishing sector to Gicumbi and Burera districts on Friday, 22^nd July. The event was attended by over 41 participants including publishers, authors, illustrators and designers of Kinyarwanda children’s books in the Rwanda Children’s Book Forum.
