The event is chaired by the President and attended by members of the cabinet and parliament, representatives of the Rwandan Community abroad and, local government, media, the diplomatic community and others invited by the President.
Speaking to the media, the Minister for Cabinet Affairs, Marie SolangeKayisire said that this year they will focus on National Transformation Programme, economic development and the role of youth in national development among other topics.
“As for the previous sessions, youth from different sides of the country will participate in the event using online technologies. They will be on different sites including Petit Stade in Kigali, Nyamasheke, Gatsibo, Musanze and Huye as organized one site per province,” she said.
In the event, they will also present the performance of last year’s Umushyikirano resolutions implementation which took place under the theme ‘Shaping together the Rwanda we want’.
