The sixth edition of Rwanda Day will bring together thousands of Rwandans living abroad and friends of Rwanda to Atlanta, Georgia. The event will be a celebration of 20 years of liberation (Kwibohora20) and the progress Rwanda has made, as well as a chance to discuss home grown solutions to our challenges as we continue to build a dignified nation.

 

President Kagame will deliver the keynote address followed by an interactive session with audience members.

 

This year, Rwanda Day will feature panel discussions on youth employment opportunities as well as discussions on economic self reliance and global dignity. Rwandan artists, including King James, Teta Diana, Alpha, K8 Kavuyo, The Ben, Meddy, Massamba Intore and Sophia Nzayisenga, will join guests in celebrating Rwanda Day. The event will be broadcast live in Rwanda, on TV, radio and onwww.rwandaday.org.

 

A job fair and an investment exhibition will also take place. The job fair will bring together Rwandans living abroad and employers in Rwanda to network and begin the recruitment process. The expo will showcase Rwandan products as well as opportunities to invest in key sectors such as mining, tourism, tea and coffee, real estate and construction and services.

 

Umuganura at Rwanda Day: On the night of September 20, a dinner will be held in the spirit of the traditional Rwandan first fruits festival known as Umuganura. Attached to this email is a fact sheet about Umuganura as well as Home Grown Solutions. The evening will end with performances from Rwandan artists living in Rwanda and in North America.

 

What is the #Twahisemo campaign? To mark Rwanda Day 2014, we are asking Rwandans and Friends of Rwanda to share the choices they are making as they join Rwanda's journey. This campaign echoes President Kagame's speech given to mark Kwibuka20. It is centred on the three choices Rwanda has made over the past twenty years - Staying Together, Being Accountable and Thinking Big. To join the campaign, simply share your choice on social media with the hash tags #RwandaDay and #Twahisemo.

OIF : Louise Mushikiwabo, une candidature embarrassante pour un troisième mandat de trop

C'était en novembre 2025, à Kigali. En marge de la 46e Conférence ministérielle de la Francophonie, Louise Mushikiwabo prenait la parole avec l'assurance de celle qui n'a rien à craindre : de nombreux pays, affirmait-elle, lui avaient demandé de se représenter. Spontanément. Naturellement. Unanimement presque. Sauf que les faits racontent une tout autre histoire. L'annonce qui ne devait pas avoir lieu si tôt Novembre 2025. Le Centre de Conventions de Kigali accueille plus de 400 délégués des 90 États membres de l'Organisation internationale de la Francophonie. Le thème officiel porte sur les femmes et l'égalité des genres, trente ans après Pékin. Mais en marge des séances plénières, c'est une autre affaire qui agite les couloirs : Louise Mushikiwabo vient d'annoncer qu'elle souhaite briguer un troisième mandat. L'annonce est prématurée. Délibérément. Les candidatures ne ferment qu'en avril 2026. Aucun autre pays n'a encore ...

Pourquoi les sanctions américaines ne fonctionnent pas contre le Rwanda

Pourquoi Paul Kagame a ignoré les sanctions américaines et la Résolution 2773 du Conseil de sécurité de l'ONU Entre février 2025 et mars 2026, le Trésor américain a imposé deux séries de sanctions ciblant directement la machine de guerre du Rwanda dans l'est du Congo : d'abord James Kabarebe, ministre d'État rwandais et principal intermédiaire du régime auprès du M23, puis les Forces de défense rwandaises en tant qu'entité, ainsi que quatre de leurs hauts responsables. Chacun des individus sanctionnés est demeuré en poste. Les FDR ne se sont pas retirées. Cette analyse examine pourquoi les mesures de Washington n'ont pas modifié la conduite du Rwanda — et pourquoi, selon les propres mots de Kagame, elles sont rejetées comme l'œuvre des « simplement stupides ».     Introduction : des sanctions sans conséquence La campagne de sanctions de Washington contre les opérations militaires du Rwanda dans l'est du Congo s'...

Paul Kagame: “We refuse to remove defensive measures"

Paul Kagame Refuses to Implement the Washington Accords and UN Security Council Resolution 2773: Analysis and Implications In an exclusive interview published on 3 April 2026, President Paul Kagame of Rwanda openly confirmed that Rwandan forces are deployed in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo, rejected calls for their withdrawal, dismissed US sanctions as illegitimate, and signalled clear satisfaction with the current military status quo. This briefing examines what Kagame said, what his remarks mean for the Washington Accords, and what concrete steps the United States must now take if it wishes to restore credibility to its diplomacy in the Great Lakes region. Introduction: A Confession Wrapped in Grievance The interview, conducted by François Soudan and published in Jeune Afrique on 3 April 2026, is one of the most candid public statements Paul Kagame has made on Rwanda's military role in the DRC. Its significance does not lie in revealing something previously unknown. Th...
