Connect with Rwanda

Understanding International Development in East Africa

Learn about responsibility as a globally engaged leader

Rwanda is an East African country that has undergone remarkable transformation from a country shattered by genocide to a thriving nation that has captured the attention of the global community. With a focus on environmental sustainability, gender equality, and technology-driven solutions, Rwanda has become a model for effective development strategies.

The program aims to challenge participants to think broadly and differently about their responsibility as globally engaged leaders using the “Listen, Think, Act” framework toward international development of our implementing partner, the Global Livingston Institute. It also seeks to help them to cultivate an appreciation for diversity through their engagement with both rural and urban communities in Rwanda. 

Connect with Rwanda is a Cultural Vistas’ Bridge to Access program. Bridge to Access aims to engage persons historically excluded from international exchange through programs, scholarships, capacity-building, and support.

In 2024, Connect with Rwanda will be co-funded by both the Cyril Taylor Charitable Foundation and the Cultural Vistas Bridge to Access initiative.
