\u201cThis commitment to education underscores our shared belief in the power of knowledge and the importance of investing in the future of our nations\u201d, he added.<\/p>\n

Notably, a substantial number of Rwandan students are awarded masters scholarships in various fields every year to study in China in addition to training Rwandan teachers and supporting curriculum development within the country. <\/p>\n
