Careers such as social worker, and some other related fields were unheard of by some of us because they were unpopular, and honestly even now, there are a few people who do not know who a social worker is.
I discovered this career in the recent years, when I heard my friend say that she wanted it as a career and my confusion was clear but at least it made her laugh.
Gloria Aronah, a social worker who is currently working with young children as an educator, explained what she does and what her career entails.
A social worker is a professional and academic discipline for the pursuit of social change, social justice and social welfare.
With their qualification they can work in a school, a hospital, mental health centre, home health agencies, or nursing homes.
“It is unfortunate that people still think that a social worker only works in children organizations, or specific organizations,” says Aronah.
This is a stereotype with the career of a social worker, because social workers can work in any setting as long as they are providing social change or social welfare.
Not a lot of people are well informed about the value of a social worker which puts a limit to job opportunities of social workers.
If hired by someone or institution that understands the value of the social worker, the pay is very good.
Sympathy, a drive for social change, valuing the importance of human relationships, and knowing the worth of a human being are some of the qualities that make a great social worker.
There are schools, and courses that help grow a professional social worker but we still need different institutions; prisons, schools, and other places to make a place for social workers to make space for them.
It also supports entrepreneurs and invest in businesses that work for supporting the wellbeing of a natural world, for creating better jobs and opportunity, for sustainable growth.
Over the years, the BESTSELLER Foundation has made a huge impact on the lives of many people, and continues to strive for change.
The first day saw BESTSELLER Foundation and African Circular Economy Network (ACEN) organizing four sessions that brought together key note speakers, panelists and exhibitors to explore the World Circular Economy Forum main themes in Rwandan context and discuss national circular economy agenda.
The three-day hybrid event running from 6th to 8th December, attracted innovators, industry experts, academicians, and representatives from non-governmental organizations among others to discuss solutions and action plans to mitigate climate change.
Also present was Dr. Jeanne D’Arc Mujawamariya, Rwanda’s Minister of Environment, and the Director for International Affairs at the Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management in the Netherlands, Dr. Peter Diez.
WCEF2022 seeks to create circular economy that promotes sustainability and economic growth. To achieve this, the forum has brought together stakeholders for discussions on the benefits of circular economy, share best practices, and develop strategies for implementation at a national level.
Among the speakers in this conference was Esethu Cenga, Co-founder and Director of Rewoven, a company committed to bridge the gap between fashion and sustainability.
Cenga narrated how as a child, she would go to buy food carrying a container from home.
This was all her way of pointing out how Africa has been sustainable from the very beginning as the container would then have more than one purpose; removing the need for envelopes or bags.
Rwanda’s Minister of Environment, Dr. Jeanne d’Arc Mujawamariya highlighted the need for people to buy what they need, not what they want, even in this holiday season.
The forum is expected to foster collaboration between companies and governments. This will allow them to create more effective policies and solutions.
The forum also features an exhibition that showcases the latest innovations in circular economy technologies and applications.
Participants of the exhibition include AFLIMBA, a company dedicated to making stylish bags from old recycled jeans, represented by its founder, Planté Josue Niyomugenga.
There were several sessions held in the BESTSELLER ‘s circular economy hub that featured companies such as AMPERSAND, SLS ENERGY, UZURI K&Y and MASS DESIGN as they gathered to talk about local opportunities and bottlenecks faced by entrepreneurs.
The study conducted through the annual Rwanda Bribery Index released today, shows that bribes were mainly offered to secure utility services, jobs in the private sector, land titles and construction permits among others.
The survey which was first conducted in 2010 establishes and reports experiences and perceptions of Rwandans regarding bribery in the country.
It also indicated that 97% of individuals declining to offer solicited bribes end up receiving services for free. This means, only 3% are denied services over declining to offer bribes.
The purpose of their visit was to appraise the Minister and CDS about EASF activities and also discuss ways of strengthening EASF to be poised for future challenges.
The team also evaluated Rwanda’s pledged capabilities (military and police) in line with the EASF Force readiness assessment.

{{About Dubai Festivals and Retail Establishment}}

Instead of officially breaking up with someone during this season, they do what I like to call a ‘mental breakup’, which includes ignoring your texts, calls or invites for a long period of time.
Anna Ihogoza, is a young girl who has experienced this ‘mental breakup’ around this time in 2021. She says that it was among the most hurtful memories since she did not know she was single for two months.
“He ignored me for months, I texted, called but my efforts ended to no avail. I knew he had seasonal depression so I just assumed he was depressed and needed some time,” recounts Ihogoza.
Two days before Christmas, she bumped into his sister as she was shopping. She said that her brother was doing great, even happy. At that moment, the puzzles started to put themselves in place.
Ihogoza refused to jump to any conclusion, so she decided to ask him what was going on soon since they’d go to the same church for Christmas.
What she did not count on was that he would also ignore her the whole time.
Anytime she tried to get his attention, he would cut her off and go talk to other people.
Ihogoza’s family had planned to go out, but she was miserable the whole time they were out.
“Now I look at the pictures of that day and all I can see is the sadness, my hand on my cheek, misery in my eyes and a perfectly good family moment ruined,” she says.
“He broke up with me three days after Christmas, after I had begged him to meet up so we could talk, something he could have done two months before and saved my tears,” adds Ihogoza.
There are different reasons a person might feel the need to want a breakup during the holiday.
Receiving texts, or calls from people we never expected, which in one or another makes us feel extra special because we start thinking we can do better than our current partners.
Another reason for this might be the 10% over 90% rule, looking at other people and seeing the 10% quality that your partner does not have and ignoring the ninety that he/she already has.
If your new love interest or the person courting you is buying you gifts, taking you out, they listen to you, and care for you.
A fear of commitment also comes into play, the thought of starting a year with the same person.
The knowledge that the relationship might have to take another step can be a major reason that would make a person to break up.
Sometimes, it is for the best to break up in cases where the relationship does not meet your needs.
If it is dysfunctional, or abusive; either physically, mentally or emotionally and sometimes people just want to grow as people, including their careers.
Gloria Aronah, a trauma healing counselor advises couples to really think about their decision.
This is to avoid the ‘sorry, can we get back together?’ texts after the holidays.
“At the end of the day, it is your relationship no one should tell you whether you should break up or stay together,” says Aronah.
She explains that if a person feels ready to end the relationship, they should not be stopped by the season because the rest might turn into traumas that are expensive and time consuming to heal.
In the case of Anna, her boyfriend told her directly when he was ready to break up with her.
Or had she accepted the hints, she would have probably suffered a little less and probably enjoyed her Christmas a little more.
Break-ups hurt no matter what time of the year it is, we cannot control that.
We can however control how we break-up with someone, with honesty and sympathy.
Avoid manipulation tactics, do not act-out, ignoring their texts and calls in hopes that your partner will get tired and decide to leave you.
Be straightforward, not rude; treat your partner how you would want to be treated, remember that they’ll be vulnerable and they will most likely take what you say to heart.
Besides, a face to face conversation is always better than a text message. No matter how nice the text is, it means more that you take time out of your schedule and tell your partner in person how you feel.
Their discussions were held on Sunday 4th December 2022 as Rwanda’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Dr. Vincent Biruta has confirmed.
They were held amidst deteriorated relations between Rwanda and DRC over reciprocal accusations.
Rwanda accuses DRC of working with the Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda (FDLR) to destabilize its security while the country accuses Rwanda of supporting M23 rebel group in clashes with Congolese Army (FARDC).
DR Congo officials have been claiming that their country was invaded by Rwanda through M23.
In a message posted on his Twitter handle, Blinken said that he had productive conversation with President Kagame to underscore the need for peace and security in eastern DRC.
He further said that ‘The United States urges Rwanda to honor commitments made in Luanda, including ending Rwanda’s support to M23’.
Rwanda has repeatedly denied the accusations of supporting M23 and urged DR Congo not to externalize its problems.
The rebel group resumed fighting accusing DRC of failure to implement peace accords signed in 2013.
In a message posted on Twitter, Minister Biruta underscored that President Kagame had good discussions with Blinken ‘but differences in understanding of the issue remain’.
He also said that ‘the wrong and misguided approach of the international community continues to exacerbate the problem’.
“A lasting solution requires the responsibility to be placed where it belongs,” said Dr. Biruta.
Minister pointed out the dysfunction of the DRC government and its institutions, and the support to FDLR as the first issue.
Minister Biruta also highlighted that ‘External interference and dictates in regional and continental efforts that serve to shield DRC from accountability and emboldens them to be unresponsive to commitments made through ongoing processes’ is among other issues holding back efforts to find a solution.
“M23 should not be equated to Rwanda. It is not Rwanda’s problem to solve. The security concerns of Rwanda need to be addressed, and where others may not feel obliged to, Rwanda is and will continue to do so,” he noted.
Gilbert Niyitanga, 20, and Cyiza Jean Claude, 19, were arrested red-handed in Bukomeza Village, Nkanga Cell of Sake Sector at about 10:30p.m. with the stolen motorcycle registration number RE908Z, Bajaj Boxer, and the bicycle.
They were at the time attempting to hide the motorcycle and bicycle in the bush, Superintendent of Police (SP) Hamdun Twizeyimana the Police spokesperson for the Eastern region, said.
“Niyitanga and Cyiza stole the motorcycle and bicycle and were at the time hiding them in the bush, but fortunate enough, security personnel on the night patrol saw them that night.
Following their arrest, they were cooperative and disclosed that they stole them the previous day and were in the process of getting buyers,” SP Twizeyimana said.
They were handed over to RIB at Zaza station for further legal process.
Article 166 of law determining offences and penalties in general states that; any person convicted of theft is liable to imprisonment for a term of not less than one (1) year and not more than two (2) years and a fine of not less than Rwf1 million and not more than Rwf2 million, community service in a period of six (6) months or only one of these penalties.
In article 167, the penalty for theft doubles if the offender committed the crime through burglary, climbing or possession of keys other than the owner; the theft is carried out during the night or the theft is carried out by more than one (1) person.
The latest estimate shows that more than one billion people around the world volunteer their time, skills, and experience to help improve the communities they live in. The impact of climate change, and the COVID-19 pandemic, together with political and economic shocks around the world, highlight the challenges facing many people and communities in their daily lives.
“On International Volunteer Day, we pay tribute to volunteers across the globe,” said Toily Kurbanov, Executive Coordinator of UN Volunteer Programme. “Their time, efforts and passion make a positive impact on people’s lives and help address the planet’s most challenging issues. On behalf of everyone at the UN and elsewhere, I would like to express my deepest gratitude for their ongoing commitment,” he added
The UN General Assembly resolution (A/RES/57/106), co-sponsored by 142 Member States and adopted on 26 November 2002, calls upon stakeholders to support volunteerism as a strategic tool to enhance economic and social development. As of today, 78 United Nations Volunteers in Rwanda serve support 14 UN agencies towards Development Programs to achieve Sustainable Development Goals.
The Government o Rwanda is recognized for incorporating volunteer services in the national planning process and establishing a national coordination framework to effectively harness the national and international volunteer resources at the country’s disposal.
Volunteerism in Rwanda is exercised through the provision of services to the community such as Umuganda, Ubudehe, Umusanzu (Communal self-help activities based on solidarity), Abunzi, local government councils (Njyanama), Gacaca judges, electoral commission agents, community health workers (abajyanama b’ubuzima) and traditional birth attendants among others.
“I commend the Government of Rwanda for being recognized as an excellent example of volunteerism, including traditional forms of mutual aid and self-help, formal service delivery and other forms of civic participation, in economic and social development, benefiting society at large and communities. I would like to welcome the work of volunteers and request them to continue their efforts,’’ Odette Bagitengire, the UNV Programme Country Coordinator.
To mark the 2022 International Volunteer Day, the One UN Rwanda joined the Government of Rwanda, partners and the community of Gicumbi District in the “umuganda’’ activity held in the Gicumbi District, Byumba sector, Gisuna Cell, Rwiri village where they participated in erosion control activities (kurwanya isuri).
The figures were released on Monday 5th December 2022 at the launch of Mining Week in Rwanda.
Held for the fifth time, the ceremony which coincided with the celebration of Mining Day at the Kigali Conference and Exhibition Village, was graced by different officials including Prime Minister, Dr. Edouard Ngirente and the CEO of RMB, Amb. Yamina Karitanyi among others.
The week will offer mining industry members not only a space for rich panel discussions, but for sharing the industry’s best practices, and refresher courses through training, and opportunities for new partnerships.
Amb. Karitanyi said that the week was organized to bring together sector players to discuss best practices and make it more meaningful to national economy.
She highlighted that the output of Rwanda’s minerals including cassiterite, coltan, tungsten and gold continues to increase.
Amb. Karitanyi disclosed that the country currently registers 158 mining companies noting that the sector presents many investment opportunities be it in minerals extraction and value addition.
In 2020, Amb. Karitanyi said, Rwanda generated US$733 million from minerals’ exports up from US$373 of 2017.
In 2021, revenues dropped to US$516 million owing to reduced prices on the international market. According to Amb. Karitanyi, the year 2022 is promising in consideration of the US$585 generated in the first nine months.
She attributed the increase in revenues to Rwanda’s initiative to establish plants adding value to minerals before exportation.
These include gold and cassiterite refineries. Amb. Karitanyi also revealed that the country mulls opening a coltan processing plant in the near future.
The mining sector in Rwanda currently employs 46,000 people with a target to increase the number to more than 100,000 by 2024.
Premier Ngirente said that Rwanda’s mining potential is yet to be fully exploited and reiterated the country’s commitment to working with all stakeholders to develop the mining sector ‘to sustainably deliver good results’.
